Liv Morgan
Regarding Liv Morgan's movie role, people close to her claim that that "people's jaw will drop" when the announcement comes, which should be next week. We're told that it is a movie that doesn't appear to be on anyone's radar.
TLC Match
In perhaps the least surprising news of the week, the TLC match from Smackdown got incredible reviews internally. Those in the company noted before the show that they felt like the participants being left off of WrestleMania would be a big talking point.

The claim internally was that everyone emerged from the TLC match relatively healthy

Wonder if the Liv this is something along the lines of like the Jordan Peele movie, we know one comes out next year but no people have been cast/announced. Same for like Dune 3 or the new Exorcist. I could see her doing horror
