FORT WAYNE, INDIANA - MAY 23: Sol Ruca makes her entrance during Saturday Night's Main Event at Allen County War Memorial Coliseum on May 23, 2026 in Fort Wayne, United States. (Photo by Michael Marques/WWE via Getty Images) | WWE via Getty Images Sol Ruca set her X (Twitter) account to private and changed her profile picture to a black image following online criticism of a recent spot with Liv Morgan. The spot in question occurred during a Fatal 4-Way Match involving Ruca, Morgan, Lyra Valkyria, and IYO SKY that took place over the weekend in Birmingham, England. At one point during the match, Ruca went for a springboard crossbody off the middle rope on Morgan, only she seemed to clip the leg of the WWE Women’s World Champion. Footage of the moment has spread across social media. In the clips, Morgan can be seen holding her leg after escaping Ruca’s pitfall attempt. She also appeared to be limping later. Morgan seemingly downplayed any talks of an injury when she posted on X: “You’re welcome Birmingham for blessing you with my presence tonight. Currently running to London because I am the f***ing GOAT.” Despite Liv appearing to be all right, many fans still flooded social media with complaints about Ruca’s ring work. Among the insults thrown at Women’s Intercontinental Champion were “reckless” and “dangerous.” “She making Nia Jax look good lately,” one X user wrote, referencing the criticism Jax used to endure. “Better send her back down [to NXT] before she breaks her own neck.” I hope Liv isn’t injured, the way her leg bent and you can see that she was in pain omg…#WWEbirmingham pic.twitter.com/zmdtakpYhx — BELLALUTION (@n1kkiswrld) June 21, 2026 By Monday morning (June 22), fans and wrestling news outlets began to take notice that Ruca’s once-public X account had been set to private. In the place of her normal profile pic was a black image. As of press time, Ruca has not commented on the criticism of the spot with Morgan or about her decision to change her X account. However, she has previously acknowledged that she’s aware of complaints from some members of the internet wrestling community about her ring work after she was called up to WWE’s main roster in April. Following her victory over Becky Lynch for the Intercontinental title at Clash in Italy on May 31, she spoke with Sam Roberts and Megan Morant on WWE Now. During the interview, Roberts noted that since Sol’s move to Raw, “there are a lot of people that are kind of watching your every move, ready to pounce on anything that might go even slightly wrong,” and that “it feels like the level of hyper criticism has gone up.” He then asked: “Is that something that you have to kind of actively just push out to make sure you have a performance like you did tonight?” “Yeah, 100%. Even in NXT, we get people that are watching every move, and we get people that are leaving hate comments and all this negativity,“ Ruca replied. ”Essentially, being up on the main roster, you have more eyes, which means more hate, but also means more love. “So it is something that I’ve had to kind of navigate, because it wasn’t something that I thought of when I got signed, that it was going to be like, ‘Oh, this means that there’s going to be more eyes or more people trying to nitpick everything.’” Sol added: “But at the end of the day, especially with people on social media – that’s such a small percentage of our fan base – and as long as the crowd in-person is happy and, everyone backstage is happy with what I do, then that’s fine with me.” What do you think, Cagesiders? Are social media fans too harsh on Sol? Let us know in the comments.
