UPDATE: As we reported last night here on eWn, a video of Liv Morgan at a recent New York Knicks game recently went viral.
In an update on the original story (see below), the unidentified man who was seen being ignored by Liv Morgan is WWE Senior Vice President of Live Events, Justin Scalise. Scalise accompanied Liv Morgan to the game to help promote WWE’s upcoming Madison Square Garden event on March 12.
Fightful is reporting that there were a lot of lighthearted jokes about the video going viral. There are many who believe it’s been working to benefit WWE with the amount of views it’s received so far.
ORIGINAL: As one of WWE’s most popular Superstars, Liv Morgan is no stranger to trending on Twitter, but recently, her name spread on social media for an awkward moment out of the ring.
This week, Morgan attended the New York Knicks game against the Charlotte Hornets and while on-air, the former SmackDown Women’s Champion was more interested in the court than what the person next to her was saying.

“So, the thing is Max didn’t know it was tequila. Why was that mom drinking alcohol anyway? Either way, it ended up being the best day of that kids life. He got to meet Amanda Huber and even got a free scissor me Daddy Ass shirt.” https://t.co/Qoc5Y3ZA8j
