WWE Superstar Dominik Mysterio nearly jeopardized his current on-screen relationship with Liv Morgan on RAW's Netflix premiere. The Judgment Day star recently explained why he attempted to hug his former partner, Rhea Ripley.

The January 6, 2025, edition of the red brand saw Morgan put her Women's World Championship on the line against The Eradicator. On this historic night, Ripley defeated The Miracle Kid to become the new titleholder.

Following the match, Dirty Dom attempted to patch up with Mami, only to be met with a Riptide from the reigning Women's World Champion. To make amends, Dirty Dom presented Liv Morgan with a bouquet of flowers on the next week's RAW. However, Liv claimed she wasn't angry with him.

In an interview with Theonemona ahead of the Royal Rumble, Dominik Mysterio clarified that his actions were not intended to betray The Miracle Kid. The 27-year-old WWE star revealed that he and Liv Morgan had agreed that if she lost the match, he would steal the title from Rhea Ripley and run away, and the couple would resolve the situation later.

"There is a huge misunderstanding there. Liv and I had agreed that if, for whatever reason she did not end up with the title, I would steal it and run away [from Ripley] and we would figure it out. So that's what I was going for; I was going for the sneak hug, steal the title, and dip," Dom said. [From 03:07 to 03:20]
