Liv Morgan was arrested on December 14, 2023 and charged with possession of synthetic cannabinoid and possession of cannabis (20 grams or less). The first charge was later dropped while the second charge was transferred to another court before being closed.
Morgan’s attorney entered a plea of Nolo-Contendere in regard to t🔯he second charge.
Speaking to , Morgan opened up about the arrest.
"As the world knows, I did have a run in with the law. It is all cleared up now. I'm not guilty. Let me take a moment, I can't make light of the situation. I was in a situation where, there were things in my car that I was unaware of. One of those things was a felony. I got arrested, I bailed out, and I called work right away. My bail call was work.
"I called our head of talent relations, Dan. I explained what happened. He was like, 'Alright, we'll figure this out. Stay hushed, go to work tomorrow, don't tell anyone, do your thing.' I go to work to do rehab and I'm so guilty and feeling so shameful. I don't want work to be mad at me. I do a lot of community work in WWE. 'I just ruined everything on something that was my fault, but not my fault.' I have to take responsibility, it's my car, I take full responsibility for it. I showed up to work [happy face], I saw you [Logan] and we had a normal conversation, you would have never known. It was SmackDown and news broke that night."
Asked how she handled things after the news broke, Morgan said, "I was okay. What I already said was, I didn't want to lose my standing at work. I didn't want them to think that I was this criminal. I had worked so hard to get in the position I was in, and I thought I had ruined everything. I was upset. I thought I ruined my career."
Morgan was sidelined with what WWE described a🐟s a shoulder injury from July 17, 2023 until she made her return in the women's Royal Rumble in January.
She is the reigning WWE Women's Wo𒁏rld Champion and will face Nia Jax for the WWE Crown Jewel Championship at WWE Crown Jewel.
