They say “love is blind”, but in WWE, it also wears leather, hits 619s, and dips into a bucket of chicken tenders. Watching Dominik Mysterio win the Intercontinental Championship at WrestleMania 41 had us jaw-dropped, yet the real sizzle came not from the title but from the tension he’s stirred up outside the ring.
Well, he may have been Frog Splashing Finn Bálor into oblivion at Allegiant Stadium, but outside the ropes, it’s Liv Morgan—WWE’s sweetheart with a killer smile—who’s been turning heads for her very public infatuation with Mysterio.
Let’s be honest: Not everyone is cheering this romance. Some WWE peers—playfully, sure, but also pointedly—called Dominik a “scumbag”. But love him or loathe him, you can’t ignore him.

So there we were, soaking up the chaos that was the 2025 WWE Hall of Fame ceremony (via X). Amid the suits, sequins, and slightly awkward red carpet interviews came that question: “Which WWE star would you never let date your daughter?”

The answer was almost unanimous: Dominik Mysterio. Jey Uso practically said,
Dominik Mysterio… would you date Dominik Mysterio?
Maryse and Scarlett Bordeaux? Not even a hesitation. Just a firm “All of them,” like a mama bear guarding cubs from a pack of pro-wrestling wolves. And Karrion Kross?
He’s at the top of the list… and he’s a lovable scumbag.
To which Bordeaux threw in, “All he wants is chicken tenders,” and Kross added with a smirk,
That’s the problem. Something’s wrong with the kid.
You know it’s kayfabe when the roast hits that hard, and you know it’s working when Mysterio leans into the hate like a seasoned heel sipping tea from his Judgment Day mug. Is he misunderstood? Maybe. Is he playing it up for the cameras? Absolutely. Is he hilarious? Without a doubt!
Liv Morgan and Dominik Mysterio’s story really exploded at SummerSlam 2024. He betrayed Rhea Ripley, helped Morgan retain her Women’s World Title, and sealed the deal. And that moment lit the fuse. Some called it iconic; others called it treason. Either way, it worked.
Who is Liv Morgan’s boyfriend?

If you’re sipping on the tea, hoping for a real-life love twist, we hate to burst your storyline bubble—Liv Morgan is single! On the Pod Meets World podcast, she opened up—not just about the grind of balancing on-screen romance with real-life love—but also about how working “intimately” with someone like Dominik Mysterio can scare off potential suitors.
I’m sure it would take a certain man to be okay with, one, my job, but two, what that all entails right now with having an on-screen boyfriend. We work pretty intimately, so I can imagine it would take a really strong, secure man.
Let’s call a spade a spade—Morgan and Mysterio’s in-ring chemistry is nuclear. Their little “WWE rendezvous” had fans doing double-takes and Judgment Day losing their collective minds.

After Morgan defeated Becky Lynch twice, thanks to some conveniently timed slip-ups from Mysterio, she sealed the deal with a kiss. But behind that smoke and mirrors, Mysterio’s heart belongs elsewhere. He tied the knot with his longtime sweetheart, Marie Juliette, in March 2024.

Morgan is not just playing hard to get—she’s genuinely focused on her grind. When asked if she gives people a chance in the dating world, her answer? She replied (via Open Thoughts):
If you really blow me away.
She’s not putting her energy into swiping right when she could be winning titles and breaking records. Her time? Premium. Her attention? Earned, not owed.
Also, she’s aware of the elephant in the room: her job isn’t exactly date-friendly. Morgan is now gearing up to defend her Women’s Tag Team Championship alongside Raquel Rodriguez at WrestleMania 41, one of the year’s most anticipated events.
WrestleMania 41 is currently streaming on Peacock in the United States and on Netflix everywhere else.
