Liv Morgan made her highly anticipated Liv Morgan WWE return on WWE RAW this week, competing in her first match in over six months following a serious shoulder injury. The former Women’s World Champion stepped back into the ring in front of fans as part of the red brand, ending a 203-day absence from singles competition.
Morgan’s Comeback After Injury and Recovery
Liv Morgan had been forced out of action when she suffered a significant shoulder injury during a match, which required surgery and a lengthy rehabilitation period. This setback sidelined her from WWE programming for months, leaving a gap in the women’s division during her recovery.
After returning to WWE at Survivor Series where she aided Dominik Mysterio in reclaiming the Intercontinental Championship, Morgan has quickly regained her position as a major force. She has also resumed her behind-the-scenes influence within the Judgment Day faction, playing a pivotal leadership role.
First Match Back on RAW Delivers Excitement
On this week’s RAW episode, Morgan faced Lyra Valkyria in a highly anticipated singles match. This marked her official in-ring comeback and her first bout since her June 16, 2025 injury. The encounter was intense and lived up to the company’s big-show standards, with Morgan emerging victorious by pinfall. The energy in the arena matched the significance of her return, highlighting her impact on WWE’s women’s roster.
Morgan’s win signaled she is back at full strength, and anticipation is building about her storylines moving forward in the division.
Potential Role at WrestleMania and Beyond
Recently, Morgan has joined forces with Roxanne Perez, making waves in the women’s tag team division. Given her recent momentum and prominence, there is speculation that she could contend for tag team gold at WrestleMania. As the event approaches, fans are eager to see how WWE will integrate Morgan into high-stakes matchups and whether she will challenge for championships in the coming months.
The trajectory of Liv Morgan after this successful WWE RAW match is expected to shape the future of the women’s division, creating anticipation among supporters and raising questions about her path toward WrestleMania.
