At the WWE Survivor Series 2025 Premium Live Event in San Diego, California, Liv Morgan made a dramatic return to WWE by interfering in the Intercontinental Championship match between John Cena and Dominik Mysterio. Initially appearing to betray Mysterio and mark her comeback, Morgan surprised everyone by delivering a low blow to Cena followed by hitting him with the title belt, helping Mysterio win the match and reclaim the championship. Known for admiring Cena in her youth, Morgan’s comeback is notable especially since this was Cena’s last Premium Live Event match and nearly the final match of his WWE career. Prior to her return, Morgan shared an image of herself dressed in Cena’s iconic outfit from a 2022 WWE photoshoot.
After the match, WWE released a backstage video showing Mysterio praising Morgan’s support, calling himself “Dirty Dom, the king of luchadores,” and thanking Morgan (referred to as “Gerita”). Morgan confirmed her comeback with the words, “We’re really back.” She had been out since June due to a shoulder injury. Moreover, Morgan has been featured in the Women’s WWE WrestleMania 42 trailer alongside top stars like Becky Lynch, Charlotte Flair, IYO SKY, Rhea Ripley, Tiffany Stratton, and Jade Cargill.
