One of the most highly-anticipated matches at WWE Day 1

The story between Becky Lynch and Liv Morgan has been simmering for many weeks now. It reaches boiling point at WWE Day 1 where the two women will go to battle over the most prestigious prize in the women's division - the RAW Women's Championship.

Yes, they have tussled before, where Morgan came up short against Lynch. Sure, there was a bending of the rules, but it's certainly not the first time such a thing has happened in the company's glorious history, has it?

The one certainty when it comes to pro wrestling is that fans are extremely vocal about their likes and dislikes. As always, there's a contingent of fans that believe that Liv Morgan winning the title is what's best for business. There's another that's rooting for Becky Lynch to retain the RAW Women's Championship.

So, we'll be impartial mediators and elaborate on both of these perspectives. Please feel free to voice your own thoughts in the comments section below.


#3 Becky Lynch should retain her title because Liv Morgan isn't ready for the position

There's a lot more that goes into being a champion than just having a great moment in front of fans. Liv Morgan has all of the ingredients that it takes to become as great as Becky Lynch someday. But at this point in time, it may just be wiser to keep the title around Big Time Becks' waist.

Lynch is far more established at this point, and she can do the media rounds, the talk show appearances, the meet-and-greets with far more pomp and swagger.

Morgan hasn't found her character yet as Becky Lynch did with 'The Man'. She may be far more 'over' with the WWE audience when she does.

#4 Liv Morgan should win because another loss may disrupt her momentum

As mentioned before, Liv Morgan lost to Becky Lynch on an episode of RAW. As popular as The Man is, even as a heel, the crowd was behind Morgan on this occasion.

They were rooting for her to defeat the big bad heel, to realize her destiny, and capture the RAW Women's Championship. If Liv Morgan comes up short again, against Becky Lynch at WWE Day 1, it may curtail her momentum.


#3 Becky Lynch should win because there are better contenders waiting in the wings

Fans may feel strongly about Liv Morgan at this point. But they may be more firmly behind someone like Rhea Ripley or Naomi, winning the Royal Rumble and defeating Becky Lynch at WrestleMania 38.

Alexa Bliss or Asuka could return at the Royal Rumble too and go on to win the entire thing, to challenge Lynch at WrestleMania. Both of these prospects may be far more exciting than Morgan becoming the RAW Women's Champion at this particular point.

#2 Liv Morgan should win because a show of this nature needs a major headline

Liv Morgan defeating Becky Lynch is a symbolic representation of good triumphing over evil. Such a headline may be appropriate for a show of this magnitude, especially after a covid outbreak in the roster resulted in a depleted Monday Night RAW.

Moreover, it may be too soon to dethrone Big E or Roman Reigns, so the show needs some kind of news emerging from it. Morgan becoming the new RAW Women's Champion may be what the doctor ordered.


#1 Becky Lynch should win because it allows Liv Morgan to win the Royal Rumble and challenge her

Sometimes a long and winding road may be just what is needed to get over. Even if Liv Morgan comes up short twice, she should win the Royal Rumble to eventually realize her destiny.

For Morgan to defeat The Man at WrestleMania would mean a lot more than WWE Day 1. It would be the culmination of a story that is told over months as opposed to 'weeks'.

An unexpected name just challenged Randy Orton RIGHT HERE.
