Liv Morgan's latest WWE rivals include Becky Lynch and now-former WWE Women's World Champion Stephanie Vaquer. Who are her favorite in-ring adversaries, though?

On a recent edition of "Six Feet Under," Morgan pointed to another pair of former women's champions: Rhea Ripley and IYO SKY.

"My favorite person to work with, I find things about all my opponents that I like, but I guess just off the top of my head, I enjoy working with Rhea. I enjoy working with IYO," Morgan said. "I enjoy all my opponents to different degrees. I get something different out of it, or they get something different out of it. So there's things I like about all my opponents.

"Probably Rhea or IYO [brings the best out], just because they're both physically dominating in different ways," she continued. "I like a struggle. I like a battle. I'm full of grit, so I enjoy the physicality that they bring. I feel like it makes me dig a little deeper, it makes me tap into something a little bit different just because I have to kind of match what they're giving me."

Morgan's rivalry with Ripley extends back to 2022, when they initially aligned in the lead-up to a WWE Women's Tag Team Championship match at WrestleMania 38. This pairing ultimately proved unsuccessful as they failed to capture the titles on two different occasions, which later prompted "The Eradicator" to turn on Morgan. Their feud has been on and off since then, with one of their most recent encounters positioning them on opposite ends of a tag title bout in January 2026.

SKY stood alongside Ripley during that Women's Tag Team Championship match. She later met Morgan one-on-one in the finals of the Queen of the Ring tournament and a Women's World Title bout at SummerSlam. Their first ever televised singles collision traces back to December 2024, when SKY again challenged for the world championship.

Morgan Dreams of Wrestling Stephanie McMahon

As for potential first-time matchups, the current WWE Women's World Champion dreams of facing a former WWE executive and a pair of legendary WWE couples.

"Dream match, a personal singles match, I'd love to wrestle Stephanie McMahon," Morgan said. "When I was younger, I used to pretend to be Stephanie McMahon. I used to smack all my brother's friends, and that was my move. But also, I do have a dream match, that is me and Dominik [Mysterio] versus CM Punk and AJ Lee. Also, you guys [The Undertaker and Michelle McCool]. I think I do [want the smoke]. That'd be iconic ... I never thought about it until right this moment, but that would be iconic. That'd be fun. That'd be a lot of fun."

Stephanie McMahon, also a former WWE Women's Champion, last competed in 2018 as she and husband Paul "Triple H" Levesque took on Ronda Rousey and Kurt Angle at WrestleMania 34. Across two decades, McMahon wrestled in two dozen official matches, all while balancing on-screen and backstage management roles. She received her induction into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2026.

CM Punk and AJ Lee both wrestled this year, with the latter on hiatus from in-ring competition following WrestleMania 42. Punk, meanwhile, remains a regular fixture on the "WWE SmackDown" brand. The couple reunited in the ring last year to battle Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins.

Regarding Morgan's other dream clash against him and Michelle McCool, The Undertaker noted that he'd be open to making it happen, but only on the AAA stage, where he currently serves as the head of creative.
