Last Friday on WWE SmackDown, it was announced that Liv Morgan is out of action with an injury, resulting in Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez being stripped of the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles.
WWE will crown new champions on the May 29th edition of Raw when they hold a Fatal 4-Way match featuring Rodriguez & a mystery partner, Ronda Rousey & Shayna Baszler, Bayley & IYO SKY, and Chelsea Green & Sonya Deville.
While speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Bryan Alvarez noted Morgan is dealing with a serious shoulder injury that may result in her getting surgery.
Alvarez: “Liv Morgan has what is believed to be a shoulder injury that may need surgery, and so they announce on SmackDown that she and Raquel were being stripped of the tag team titles, and they’re going to do a four way coming up on Raw and the winners of that this week.”
Meltzer: “But the week after, right?”
Alvarez: “Yep, and the winners of that will be the new champions, Raquel and a partner of her choosing. Ronda and Shayna, Bayley and IYO, and Sonya and Chelsea, with the winners being the new champions. And again, we don’t know if she’ll need surgery, how long she’ll be out, but apparently, it’s serious enough that they stripped of the titles.”
Meltzer: “I guess the situation on Monday, they didn’t know.”
Alvarez: “Well, no, because they did an angle which basically in the angle they did on Monday was just to delay it was to delay it.”
