Liv Morgan Regains WWE Women's World Championship in New Orleans
Liv Morgan captured the WWE Women's World Championship for the fourth time after defeating Stephanie Vaquer and Becky Lynch in a triple threat match at Money in the Bank in New Orleans, with Morgan pinning Vaquer to reclaim the title after a 28-day reign.
According to Wrestling Inc., Morgan won the match after hitting Oblivion on Vaquer following a chaotic sequence involving Lynch being sent into a table. The victory marked Morgan's second title win over Vaquer in 2026.
Sports Yahoo reported that Vaquer had taken the championship from Morgan on September 12 at a live event in Chile before losing it back at Money in the Bank. The match was Vaquer's first defense during her second reign.
Morgan's latest victory adds another championship run to a résumé that includes a 2024 title reign, her 2026 Royal Rumble win, and a WrestleMania 42 victory over Vaquer for her third overall reign.
Wrestling Inc. reported that Dave Meltzer discussed the short title change on Wrestling Observer Radio after Vaquer's reign ended quickly.
"Essentially the story is that the Chile thing was a one night thing for Chile and as soon as they had the chance, they got it back on Liv. Which doesn't surprise me at all because you know, they want Liv as champion and they think she's the Superstar on that brand. Her and Rhea Ripley are the two Superstars right now in the women's division, so that was the deal," said Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio.
Vaquer previously won the vacant Women's World Championship by defeating IYO SKY at Wrestlepalooza on September 20, 2025. She also held the NXT Women's Championship and NXT Women's North American Championship during her time in NXT.
Becky Lynch entered the championship match after a number one contender match on Raw ended without a winner when Vaquer attacked both competitors. WWE General Manager Adam Pearce then made the triple threat match official.
