Paul Heyman has shared his thoughts on Liv Morgan and Gunther's current WWE run. He heaped praise on both stars for their impressive showing in the Stamford-based promotion.

Liv is the current Women's World Champion and is part of The Judgment Day. She joined the group a few months later after turning heel and forming a relationship with Dominik Mysterio. Meanwhile, The Ring General is still a bad guy and he's been World Heavyweight Champion for 117 days and counting.

During a recent appearance on SHAK Wrestling, Paul Heyman had massive praise for several stars in WWE. He mentioned names such as Bron Breakker, Cody Rhodes, and Rhea Ripley. When speaking about Gunther, The Wiseman stated:

"I watch today's roster with awe. I see Gunther, for whom English is a second language, master the language quickly, understand how to lure in an audience, and now knows how to modulate his voice to the point where he controls the emotion in the room. You have to think that at some point, he's still translating this in his head before it comes out of his mouth." [35:35-36:10]

He also spoke about Liv Morgan's rise in WWE:

"How can you look at 2024 and not envy anyone that gets to play a scene with Liv Morgan? My God, what she has done with her persona in the past six or seven months is worthy of deep review, as to the nuances and idiosyncrasies she allows to seep through to the audience while maintaining the role of the antagonist." [36:53-37:28]

Liv Morgan says Becky Lynch is not as great as she is

The Man hasn't been seen on WWE TV in numerous months. The last time she had a match, she lost to the current Women's World Champion.

Liv Morgan spoke about Becky Lynch during an interview with Inside Ropes and stated that she doesn't think Big Time Becks was "greater" than her.

"Her goal, I think, was to really evolve it and maximise women’s wrestling and really make women’s wrestling feel just as special and important as the men’s wrestling, and she did it all while being a fantastic brand-new mummy. But with all that, she’s still not as great as me."

Becky Lynch is currently on a hiatus from wrestling. Many WWE fans are eagerly awaiting her return to the company.
