Below are some top WWE news stories of the day, involving Matt Riddle, Hulk Hogan and Liv Morgan.
• Matt Riddle was notably absent from Sunday’s Memphis Wrestling TV tapings, despite being heavily advertised for the event.
According to PWInsider, Riddle informed the promotion on the day of the show that he would not be attending. The reason for his absence has not been disclosed.
Riddle was at Nick Hogan’s wedding the day before, but it remains unclear if he will reschedule his appearance for a future date. His absence is significant given the tapings were promoted heavily around his participation, where he was scheduled to face TNA wrestler AJ Francis (Top Dolla in WWE).
After having a controversial run in WWE (where he failed multiple drug tests and had controversies out of the ring as well), Riddle is having controversies on the indy scene as well, where he has been accused of asking promoters for more money on short notice.

• Former Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan is Dominik Mysterio’s on-screen girlfriend.
During an interview on the Pod Meets World podcast, Liv said the following about how Dirty Dom’s wife feels about their on-screen romance:
“Dominik is actually married and he has a beautiful, strong, secure wife that, you know, is okay with him going off to work every week and us having this little on-screen rendezvous.
If I happen to be so lucky to find someone that is just as strong and confident, we’ll see, but I feel like also the last couple of years I’ve been really honed into my work, and I kind of didn’t give space for dating.”
