WWE star Liv Morgan has spoken out on her time working at Hooters, lauding the company which she was employed by before her wrestling days.

Praising the restaurant for giving her "an opportunity", the one-time Smackdown Women's Champion was full of praise for the eatery. Revisiting the chain and saying she will "always have love" for it, Liv was seen to be loving life in the diner.

Among working at Hooters were modelling gigs in the company as well as competitive cheerleading before her step into the ring. WWE soon came knocking for the star who had been taking bumps way before she was headhunted by the brand.

Picked up by NTX back in 2014, Liv has been a firm face of the brand ever since she was hired. But before her time in the ring, she was serving tables for the controversial Hooters brand, Sportskeeda reported.

Speaking of her time with Hooters, Liv said: "Hooters not only gave me a job but gave me an opportunity. Something I needed at that time. It was the first time in my life I had responsibility. Even if it was as simple as making sure your wings were hot and your beer was cold. I took it and ran with it."

She soon found herself picked up by WWE's NXT brand when discovered at Joe DeFranco's gym in New Jersey, United States. From there, the 29-year-old has picked up championships and main event bouts.

Liv was soon bumped up to the main roster after three years in the developmental arena, making her debut in 2017 and heading right for Becky Lynch. The Daily Star previously reported on Lynch's grim arm rip in a match-up earlier this month.

Her match against Tiffany Stratton left her with some brutal battle wounds though the star has since recovered. Taking to Instagram to share details of her injuries, the former Women's Champion credited her young opponent.

She wrote: "NbeXT was rocking tonight. The Man brought @tiffanywwe to the main event but she brought it to The Man. Respect. It wasn’t Tiffy time this time. But it will be again. The world tour continues. Stitches and all – last slide is my arm."

Former stars of the WWE ring were left stunned by the brutal wounds, with former Women's Champion Melina writing: "The fact that you’re a mom makes this post way cooler than ever? Praying that your wound heals quick mama."
