WWE star Liv Morgan's injury gets ‘severe' update
The post WWE star Liv Morgan's injury gets 'severe' update appeared first on ClutchPoints. For those who thought WWE Superstar Liv Morgan's shoulder injury on Monday Night RAW on Netflix was scripted, it was '100% legitimate.' Advertisement PWInsider reports Morgan's injury was not part of a storyline. She was brought backstage after she dislocated her shoulder, and WWE is still waiting to get the official severity of the injury. 'If it is a severe dislocation, it could be upwards of 16 weeks before someone is cleared for athletic activity, but again, this is all dependent on the final diagnosis in terms of how severe the dislocation is[,] and that has not been determined as of this writing,' the report read. Luckily, Morgan's opponent, Kairi Sane, who was in the ring during Zoey Stark's recent scare, doesn't have any 'heat' on her for the injury. 'It was being seen as a freak occurrence[,] and there is no heat on anyone,' PWInsider notes. WWE star Liv Morgan's shoulder injury During the June 16, 2025, edition of RAW, Morgan faced Sane in a singles match. The injury occurred within the opening seconds of the match. Sane ducked under a kick by Morgan, pulling her down before the former Women's World Champion landed awkwardly. Advertisement Right after dislocating her shoulder, Morgan rolled out of the ring. The slow-motion replays showed Morgan's bad landing, and she was immediately writhing in pain upon her landing. WWE officials helped Morgan to the back. Her match against Sane did not have a definitive winner. Sane was named the winner due to Morgan leaving, but the score will have to be settled upon her return. Some fans must have been celebrating the injury, as Morgan's rival, Rhea Ripley, stood up for her on X, formerly Twitter. 'PSA. Don't celebrate an injury,' Ripley wrote. 'Disgusting behavior. Don't be like them.' We will have to wait and see how long Morgan is out of action. She is in the midst of her record-setting fourth Women's Tag Team Championship reign with Raquel Rodriguez. Advertisement Additionally, she is entrenched in a Judgment Day storyline involving Roxanne Perez. It appears Perez is trying to take her spot in the faction, attempting to win Dominik Mysterio over. Morgan is also coming off her first 'major' movie role. She will star in Bad Lieutenant: Tokyo alongside Shun Oguri and Lily James. We are all hoping for a speedy recovery for Morgan.

WWE star Liv Morgan's injury gets devastating timeline update
The post WWE star Liv Morgan's injury gets devastating timeline update appeared first on ClutchPoints. Unfortunately, it could be several months before fans see WWE star Liv Morgan return from her recent shoulder injury, which may keep her out for most of the summer. Advertisement During a recent WrestleVotes Q&A, it sounds like Morgan may be out for 'three months' or so. Nothing is official, but that is what WrestleVotes heard from their sources. 'Just talking to a few people, obviously, [I] didn't talk to any doctors, so internet, don't run wild with it, it's about three months; she's gonna be on the shelf with the injury,' WrestleVotes said. 'I asked a couple of people, and they said roughly around 12 weeks. Hopefully, it's less, but a dislocated shoulder takes time.' One thing WrestleVotes noted was the backstage reaction to Morgan's injury. Unlike fellow Superstar Zoey Stark's recent scare, it was 'a lot more calm' when Morgan got hurt. Both incidents took place with Kairi Sane in the ring. She dodged a kick by Morgan and pulled her to the ground. Morgan landed awkwardly, and you could see the expression on her face change. WWE star Liv Morgan's latest shoulder injury The latest injury for Morgan took place during the June 16, 2025, edition of Monday Night RAW. Morgan's injury occurred within the opening seconds of her match against Sane. Advertisement She rolled out of the ring after her awkward fall. Morgan was then helped to the backstage area by WWE officials. Sane was then declared the winner since Morgan could not continue the match. Hopefully, Morgan will be back in the ring sooner rather than later. She is in the midst of the height of her popularity in WWE. She is coming off a 226-day reign as Women's World Champion that lasted from May 2024 to January 2025. Morgan came back from another shoulder injury at the 2024 Royal Rumble. She started a revenge tour where she won the Women's World Championship from Becky Lynch. During her reign, Morgan won the inaugural Women's Crown Jewel Championship after beating Nia Jax at the namesake event. She also had successful title defenses against Rhea Ripley and Iyo Sky before dropping it to Ripley during the WWE RAW on Netflix premiere.

WWE Superstar Details Horrific Injury As They Face Months Out Of Action
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. WWE RAW superstar Zoey Stark has revealed the full extent of the brutal knee injury she suffered during the May 19th episode of RAW. In a video posted to social media, Stark confirmed she underwent major surgery to repair a torn ACL, MCL, and meniscus. The video showed the moment she was injured during a triple-threat qualifying match for Money in the Bank. Stark landed awkwardly after attempting a missile dropkick and had to be carried out of the arena by WWE medical personnel. Unfortunately, this is familiar territory for Stark, who was sidelined with a similar knee injury in late 2021 while in NXT. That injury also required surgery and kept her out of action for approximately nine months. Before this latest setback, Stark had been the last remaining member of the "Pure Fusion Collective" faction on RAW. Her partners, Shayna Baszler and Sonya Deville, had both been released by WWE earlier in 2025. More news: WWE News: Steve Austin Reveals Real-Life Vince McMahon Confrontation Stark first signed with WWE in 2021 and found early success in NXT, winning the NXT Women's Tag Team Championship with Io Shirai (now IYO SKY). After being called up to the main roster in the 2023 WWE Draft, she was immediately placed in a high-profile storyline. COLOGNE, GERMANY - NOVEMBER 07: A WWE Logo at the WWE Live Tryout at the Motorworld on November 7, 2018 in Cologne, Germany. COLOGNE, GERMANY - NOVEMBER 07: A WWE Logo at the WWE Live Tryout at the Motorworld on November 7, 2018 in Cologne, served as the enforcer for WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus during her heated feud with Becky Lynch. Stark played a crucial role in that program, helping Stratus in major matches at Night of Champions and Payback. Stark's recent video update noted that her surgery, originally scheduled for two hours, ultimately took three and a half hours to complete. The video ended by teasing a further update, promising that fans will find out "What's next for Zoey Stark?" on the June 16th episode of RAW. Stark is someone who is liked within the locker room and a solid in-ring worker. Once she's back, hopefully, she returns to full strength and can continue to build on her career while on the main roster. It will be interesting to see if she gets a renewed push once she's back in action and what brand she will end up on once she returns. We wish her a speedy recovery.
