Reported Reason Why Ronda Rousey vs. Liv Morgan Match Was So Short At WWE Summer Slam 2022

At WWE Summer Slam 2022, Liv Morgan successfully defended her SmackDown Women's Championship against The Rowdy Ronda Rousey in controversial fashion. It was among the most anticipated matches but WWE ended it in four minutes and 35 seconds. Despite being in the armbar and tapping out, Morgan pinned Rousey's shoulders down as the referee counted to three.

Bryan Alvarez of the Wrestling Observer tweeted that the match had a lot of cut because The Miz and Logan Paul's contest lasted longer than expected, going over 14 minutes. He then questioned WWE's tendency to broadcast too many video packages between the matches.

"That match had a lot of time cut because Miz and Logan went long. HOW ABOUT WE CUT SOME VIDEO PACKAGES INSTEAD OF TIME OFF MATCHES," tweeted Alvarez.
