Sonya Deville provides details about a real fight between Liv Morgan and Mandy Rose during WWE promo class

We’re in promo class, okay? We’re all new. Gionna got to the Performance Center a year before me and Mandy. Then me and Mandy came, and we’re all still new though, and we’re in promo class and we did this drill called the pull-apart promo. So, you do a pretend pull-apart — people are security, or other people are pulling you off the other girl — and you’re just pretending. Then you have to cut a promo right after, so it gets you in the vibe of a real match or whatever. They’re doing a pull-apart, Me, Aliyah, and this girl Danielle Kamela, I think. We were the three people ‘hired,’ so to speak, to pull them apart. And it’s easy, you know — you just pretend, work together, whatever.

So, we’re doing it, I’m in the middle of the two of them, and they’re doing it. It feels normal at first, and then I’m feeling wind whiz past my ear, and I’m like, ‘Yo, they’re really throwing.’ Then I hear one of them say, ‘What, bitch?’ And then you know how you can feel the intensity in someone’s body when they’re no longer working? You know what that feels like — when they grab and you just know, ‘Oh, it’s a fight now.’ Because now it is a scramble. It’s the Tasmanian Devil. And I’m in the middle going, ‘Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!’ and I’m shooting on both of them to get them off each other. But Mandy had Gionna’s hair, and Gionna had Mandy’s hair. They’re screaming at each other, swinging for the fences. Finally, I’m ripping them apart. The boys slide in to help me rip them apart because they’re like untamed animals. We get them apart. They slide out, coaches are yelling, Bloom comes in, and everyone’s freaking out.

Mandy was so proud at the time — you might remember this — that she didn’t have hair extensions back then. So she [Liv] rolls out and she’s like, ‘You pulled my hair! You pulled my hair!’ And Mandy goes, ‘At least my hair is real, bitch.’ And she thought that was like… and they’re just f*cking each other up now, cursing each other out. And you know Mandy — she was so proud of that. And we’re all just like, ‘What is going on?’ I was friendly with Gionna. I was best friends with Mandy, but I was already friendly with Gionna, so I was kind of like the middleman. I was kind of laughing, like, ‘What the hell is going on?’ And then the coaches came in and gave a big speech. I think one swung a little too snug and the other retaliated.”
