The 2 superstars lastly had an opportunity to fulfill on the film’s premiere, and it is laborious to disclaim now how a lot they do resemble each other.

If there’s going to be a Barbie 2, I believe it is a on condition that Liv Morgan must be within the solid. On the very least, she’d make an amazing stunt double for Margot Robbie, and even for Barbie herself as an in-universe character. Although I might think about she’s bought a much more profitable gig proper now kicking ass within the WWE together with her tag-team companion Raquel Rodriguez. On the very least, although, perhaps Mattel can convey a couple of Barbie and WWE collaboration to craft a brand new doll with Morgan’s likeness.
For these much less conversant in Liv Morgan and professional wrestling, this assembly with Margot Robbie is a narrative that seems like years within the making.

Now that these two have met face-to-face, I do should surprise if there’s an opportunity for Margot Robbie to make an look within the WWE. Robbie displaying up at WrestleMania at this level in her profession can be about as massive as Dwayne Johnson really returning to the WWE for a match. With that being mentioned, Robbie has mentioned on the document that she was an enormous fan of the WWE rising up and even slept subsequent to a cardboard cutout of John Cena, so I would not rule out the opportunity of this occurring one bit.
