Morgan, who was raised in Elmwood Park, will be wrestling on the second night of WWE's WrestleMania 41 on Sunday April 20, defending her WWE Women's Tag Team Championship with Raquel Rodriguez against the team of Bayley and Lyra Valkyrie in front of 60,000+ fans at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
Having defeated Bayley on a recent episode of WWE's "Monday Night RAW," Morgan seems confident going into her match.
The WWE wrestler has been quite the ride over the past year. She returned from injury and feuded with Rhea Rhipley, taking her WWE Women's Title and her boyfriend, "Dirty" Dominick Mysterio, aligning with the villainous Judgment Day. Though she eventually lost the title back to Rhipley, she found gold again, winning the tag titles with Rodriguez in February.
A two-time women's champion and three-time tag team champion, Morgan's WWE career is filled with accomplishments- though she has not won a match at WrestleMania. Morgan is 0-3 in her previous three matches at The Grandest Stage of Them All.
The 30-year-old grew up a huge WWE fan. In the backyard of her home in Elmwood Park, Morgan and her four brothers built a makeshift ring and held their own wrestling matches, she told WWE.com in an interview. In 2014, she was discovered by WWE at Joe DeFranco's Gym in Wyckoff.
