Police bodycam footage has been posted of the moment WWE superstar Liv Morgan was arrested in December.
The 29-year-old wrestler was charged with possession of a synthetic cannabinoid and possession of marijuana (20 grams or less).
One charge was dropped less than a month later and Morgan paid a fine for the other before the case was closed in February this year.
Morgan, whose real name is Gionna Daddio, was pulled over in Florida after an officer noticed she was driving slowly (20mph below the speed limit) and swerved across the road.
Image material posted by Law & Crime shows the officer saying he could smell marijuana as he approached her vehicle. Morgan claims her driving was a result of her attempting to follow her GPS in an area she was unfamiliar with.

Officers found a bag of marijuana and a vapor with an ‘oily substance’ in her car
Morgan denies smoking marijuana, but admits there was some in her car. Officers also find a vape pen that contained “an oily substance,” but Morgan denies it is hers.
After being transferred to a police vehicle, officers begin to search Morgan’s car and discover that she is a professional wrestler.
In a notebook they come across, Morgan has written down some goals for her career.
They include “transitioning to Hollywood, WWE hall of fame, multi-time WWE champion and buying a lot of houses.”
One officer says, “Oh, so she gets to do some wrestling work.” Although the name doesn’t sound familiar.
“Holy bastard, I know who she is. Liv Morgan.”
“That’s crazy,” says the other officer.

Morgan is only 29 years old and has held multiple titles during her WWE career
When Morgan gets her phone back from the cop, she calls friend Bo Dallas – real name Taylor Rotunda – and asks him to pick up her car and work on her bail.
Morgan was released later that same evening on a $3,000 bond.
The New Jersey native originally began her WWE journey in 2014 with the company’s developmental brand NXT before making her main roster debut in 2017 as a member of the ‘Riot Squad’.
Since then, Morgan won the 2022 Women’s Money in the Bank match before cashing in and defeating Ronda Rousey for the SmackDown Women’s Championship later the same night.
She also held the WWE Women’s Tag Team titles alongside her then-partner Raquel Rodriguez.
Morgan was sidelined for most of last year with a shoulder injury, but returned at the 2024 Royal Rumble.
