Liv your dreams.

  • In her SmackDown debut on November 21, 2017, she showed she wouldn't be the Lesser Star amongst more tenured workers like her teammates - by picking up a table and throwing it on Becky Lynch, and laying Charlotte Flair out with a modified Code Breaker.
  • Her performance in a triple threat against Billie Kay and Ember Moon on NXT, January 4, 2017. Again she could easily have been the inferior one in the match, but she took it to them, was able to match their offence and even came close to winning. Not bad for a girl who had tapped out to Asuka in a matter of seconds.
  • Winning the titular briefcase and subsequently cashing it in on Ronda Rousey at Money in the Bank 2022. Going into the event, literally everyone expected Becky Lynch to come out on top of the women's ladder match and considered Liv to be, as she had been in pretty much every circumstance leading up to the event, the beloved fan favorite who stood no realistic chance whatsoever. After defying the odds once, Liv proceeded to cash in the MITB contract on by far the steeper challenge of the two current WWE Women's Champions (out of Rousey and Raw Women's Champion Bianca Belair) and pin Rousey after a harrowing close call against her Ankle Lock. Rousey handed over the title honorably and walked away in silence, and Liv, literally weeping with elation, ushered in a new era to a standing ovation. Crosses into heartwarming as it was later revealed by Rousey's former photographer on Twitter that Rousey lobbied for Liv to go over her knowing that realistically even less than 100% (which she was, having been kayfabe injured by Natalya earlier) she could easily dispatch Liv, but she insisted Liv FINALLY have her moment after eight long years.
  • At SummerSlam 2022, controversy aside, not only did Liv successfully defend her championship, she also scores another achievement by becoming the first person in WWE to defeat Ronda twice.
  • Liv would add to this at Clash At The Castle in September defeating the far more imposing Shayna Baszler entirely clean. She even busted out an armbar she'd learned from training with Matt Riddle!
  • Even in losing her championship back to Ronda hasn't slowed Liv down one bit, as she seems to embrace her inner Jeff Hardy by frequently jumping off things and simply ENJOYING her own pain, which has left fans both confused and excited as for what's to come for Liv.
  • Remember back in 2019 Liv set the record for the fastest elimination in women's Royal Rumble by 8 seconds?note . The 2023 Rumble shows how much Liv had improved since then. Entering the match at number 2 Liv survived to the final two alongside the number 1 entry and former tag team partner, Rhea Ripley and nearly won the match outright if it weren't for being blinded by Asuka's blue mist earlier when the former was aiming for Ripley. In the closing moments, Liv attempted to eliminate her former partner but was eliminated with a hurricanrana off the apron. Still though from 8 seconds to over an hour? No one will ever take that away from her, as Ripley and Liv share the longevity record for women as of 2023. (Since broken by Bayley in the 2024 Rumble at 1:03:03)
  • Liv getting one over Ronda Rousey again at Money in the Bank 2023. After Ronda's partner, Shayna Bazler, unexpectedly betrays Ronda, Liv and Raquel Rodriguez follow up with their respective finishers, cultivating Liv pinning Ronda to recapture the Tag Team titles that they were forced to drop two months prior due to Liv's injuries. It's sweet revenge for Liv considering she never had a rematch against Ronda last year after losing the SmackDown Women's Championship.
    • To add into her accomplishment, she becomes the first person to pin Ronda Rousey thrice, something not even Becky Lynch or Charlotte Flair could claim.
