Liv Morgan is currently on the sidelines with an undisclosed injury that forced her to pull out of a scheduled match on WWE Monday Night Raw.
As previously reported, Morgan was injured during the Women’s Tag Team Title match alongside Raquel Rodriguez against Damage CTRL this past Friday on SmackDown. Morgan was scheduled to be at a Cricket Wireless meet and greet on Monday afternoon but was replaced by Dolph Ziggler.
On Monday’s Raw, it was announced the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship Match between Morgan and Rodriguez against Sonya Deville and Chelsea Green was postponed. Later in the show, Rodriguez beat Green in a singles match only to be attacked by the returning Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler.
While speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted that solo, based on WWE’s booking, it would indicate Liv’s injury isn’t serious and she won’t be out of action for long as WWE wouldn’t have postponed the scheduled match if Morgan was going to be out for a lengthy period of time.
“That’s legit. She was hurt in the Friday match….If you’re going to miss six months then yes, but if it’s just one match they don’t strip [of the title] for a minor injury. I don’t know what the injury is, and they didn’t say, but the way everything was played up, you know it’s not like if she was going to be out for a long time with this injury, she’d say she was out, and then they would take steps of stripping them of the belts. You know, it felt like it was something where, you know she’s going to be back very soon. And they went and did an angle with Ronda and Bazler with Raquel to build up a title match so I think it’s a short-term thing for Liv. That’s certainly the impression based on their booking,” Meltzer stated.
