Fans of Liv Morgan were very much worried about seeing her back on TV. After being away from the scene for over six months due to an injury, charges of drug possession further jeopardized her career.

Thankfully, the former SmackDown Women's Champion has now returned to the scene in the WWE at Royal Rumble and she's expected to be a big part of the Road to WrestleMania 40 especially after the charges against her have been dropped.

Liv Morgan was arrested on the evening of December 14th at 6:30 PM, and she found herself in a legal predicament over the charges of possession of marijuana (not exceeding 20 grams), possession of drug equipment, and possession of potentially synthetic cannabinoids.

PWInsider has now reported that Morgan's case has been officially closed. The most serious charge that she was in possession of synthetic cannabinoids was dropped in January as the state of Florida failed to produce any proof.

An Assistant State Attorney in Sumter County told a local news station that "the State is required to prove that the THC came from synthetic sources and was not derived from plant sources," and that "no labs in the State of Florida perform such tests."

As for cannabis possession, the WWE Superstar accepted conviction penalties without admitting guilt. She was fined $543, per the court records but no other penalties were further recorded for the first-degree misdemeanor.

As noted above, Liv Morgan made her return to WWE from an arm injury at the 2024 Royal Rumble by entering the Women's Rumble match and she is scheduled to compete at the WWE Elimination Chamber event in Perth, Australia, later this month.

The qualification matches for the Women's Elimination Chamber Match have begun on this week's episode of Raw in the first one of which Becky Lynch defeated Shayna Baszler in a Wrestlemania rematch to enter the fray.

Next week on Raw, Liv Morgan and Zoey Stark will face each other in the second qualifier. Cathy Kelley spoke to Morgan, and she seemed focused on getting her hands on Women's World Champion Rhea Ripley due to the past brutal attack in July.
