This update follows Morgan’s injury during a WWE RAW match with Kairi Sane on June 16. After being taken down in the match’s opening moments, she tried to brace for impact using her arms, which resulted in the unfortunate shoulder dislocation and a halt to the contest.
Timeline for Return and Impact on WWE Programming
According to Fightful Select’s Sean Ross Sapp, while exact details have not all been verified, Morgan was anticipated to need shoulder surgery and could be out for several months. The report further indicated that WWE’s creative direction for Morgan’s scheduled appearances would need to change in light of her absence.
Medical estimations for a dislocated shoulder suggest a four to twelve-week healing period, but in some cases, full recovery can stretch to six months. Prior to her injury, Morgan was rumored to be participating at the upcoming WWE Evolution event, potentially teaming with Raquel Rodriguez to face Nikki Bella and a tag partner, a match now unlikely to occur as planned.
What Morgan’s Absence Means for WWE and Her Career
With Liv Morgan sidelined, WWE must adjust storylines and find replacements for her intended matches, affecting both her own and her colleagues’ ongoing arcs. Fans and peers alike will be hoping for a steady Liv Morgan shoulder surgery recovery and look forward to updates on her rehabilitation progress and eventual return to action.
