Here is the detailed insight on Liv Morgan’s tragic WWE injury.
Last night on the 16th June episode of Raw, Liv Morgan faced off against Kairi Sane in an extremely short bout. Within minutes of the match starting, Sane dropped Morgan with a takedown, possibly dislocating her shoulder. Soon, WWE shared an official update and confirmed the injury.
Following the Raw episode, wrestling veteran Tommy Dreamer appeared on his “Busted Open After Dark” podcast and shared a detailed breakdown of what might have happened during the accident. Speaking from his own experience of suffering similar injuries, the hardcore wrestling legend claimed,
“The woman got hurt. It sucks. From someone who has separated a dislocated shoulder, the moment it happens, it takes the breath out of you. If you could tell right away she rolled out… she knew something was wrong with her body.”
“When she went down, her left leg was still up, almost like in a kneeling position, where her right leg was going flat… as that goes, if you’re falling forward, even at the easiest of imbalance, your shoulder is going to hyperextend. She wasn’t trying to stop her fall. She was just trying to go forward. And with that extension, it’s so easy to pop your shoulder and dislocate it.”
He further stated,
“It sucks, and it’s going to be something that happens for the rest of your life. You just got to continue the rehab, continue strengthening that shoulder, and don’t come back too soon.”
Dreamer concluded his statements by wishing the former women’s champion a heartfelt message.
“If you are a fan of Liv Morgan, like I am a fan of Liv Morgan, prayer, I believe in prayer, and as well as I believe, in sending a positive note to a person, letting them know how their work affected you, or how much you appreciate them and appreciate their work. I appreciate Liv. If I had the pencil, Liv would still probably be my champion. I think she’s amazing. I think she’s an amazing performer… Mentally, it’s tough too, because you’re like, ‘Man, I’m on top of the world.
What could go wrong?’ And then all of a sudden it goes wrong… we offer nothing but support. And I hope that you all do too for Liv because she needs it, and it’s going to be a long, painful recovery.”

New Update On Liv Morgan’s WWE Return Timeline
“It is 100% a legitimate injury. For those who have asked with conspiracy theories that this was a way to write her out for an outside project, no it was not. WWE is waiting to learn the severity of the dislocation, which would determine how long Morgan would be out of physical action. 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.”
