Liv Morgan is still on cloud nine, almost a month after she won the WWE SmackDown Women’s Championship.

Morgan successfully cashed in her Money in the Bank briefcase on Ronda Rousey on July 2 to win the gold. At WWE SummerSlam, she’ll defend the championship in rematch against Rousey. 

In a new interview with Ariel Helwani, Morgan emphasized how she’s hopeful that her title win will kick off the next chapter in her story, but she’s doing her best to stay present and soak in the moment.

“I feel like this is just the beginning, and so I definitely want to feel this moment as best I can. I feel like growing up and for 24 years, wanting one thing and being so laser-focused on one thing, and then to finally have it, it’s kind of like, ‘What do I do now that I’ve accomplished this?’ So I’m definitely smelling the flowers, and I’m hoping this is just the start of the next chapter of my career in WWE,” she said.

Morgan went on to describe she still feels euphoric in the aftermath of her title win, saying, “My reality is so much better than my dreams right now, but at the same time, it’s kind of like overcasted but this weird, euphoric feeling that hasn’t left my body. It doesn’t feel like I’m living in my reality. It’s a weird conundrum. Nothing feels real. Nothing feels real. That’s why I think I’m trying so hard to soak it all in and absorb it because nothing is kind of sinking in. Nothing is kind of feeling real, and I don’t know if that’s a good or bad thing.”

When asked about the best part of her first month as the champion, Morgan described how the title has validated her, and she also appreciates the way she has been able to inspire other women in the locker room.

“Kind of finally feeling like enough, and I hate that like I needed this to validate me, but I just feel so whole right now. What else though has been really cool this month, I feel like, is the response overall of like, whether it be like fans or my family and my friends and my peers, that’s been kind of something that I didn’t think about, how that would affect me. I’ve had girls from work kind of up to me and be like, ‘You winning the championship gives me hope.’ I never thought of that before, someone that is not a Four Horsewomen or a generational, just like this girl that maybe people thought would never become anything, that gave the other girls inspiration. That’s been really cool too,” Morgan said.

Morgan recently shared her thoughts on Triple H being on charge of WWE creative. Her comments are available here.
