Liv Morgan Comments on Last Year’s Shoulder Injury & Return at WWE Survivor Series: WarGames

Former Women’s World Champion Liv Morgan recently commented on her shoulder injury from last summer and her subsequent return at Survivor Series: WarGames 2025.

Morgan dislocated her shoulder after landing awkwardly during a singles match against Kairi Sane during the June 16, 2025, episode of Monday Night RAW. Later that month, she underwent shoulder surgery.

After over five months of inactivity, Liv Morgan made a blockbuster return to WWE television at Survivor Series: WarGames, helping Dominik Mysterio beat John Cena to regain the Intercontinental Championship Morgan recently appeared on INSIGHT with Chris Van Vliet, where she opened up about her injury and her eventual return to weekly programming.

Below are the highlights:

On her shoulder injury

“Yeah, I just took a weird fall, tried to brace myself, which is stupid. As soon as it happened, I knew, just because you can’t feel anything. But first of all, it’s like such an intense pain, then it just goes away, and then you can’t feel anything because your shoulder is just not connected. So yeah, I knew. I rolled out the ring. I tried to pop it back in. Medical came and tried to pop it back in, and it was kind of just like, I can’t continue, I can’t do anything else. So I had to throw in the towel, which I hated. I think I tried to be really optimistic until my MRI news; I was like, ‘I think I’m okay,’ but I had done the same thing two years prior. So I knew it wasn’t okay, but I didn’t really want to speak it into existence.”

“I don’t even know how I did that. My eyes, I was like, ‘Whoa, dilated.’ I must have tapped into something right there. I don’t know. But yeah, it was so iconic, and I couldn’t have written a better return, and I mean that so wholeheartedly. I couldn’t; first of all, I would not even have come up with that myself that was so much more grand and special to me than anything I could have thought of myself. So I was just so happy and honored.”

Following her return at Survivor Series: WarGames, Liv went on to win the 2026 Women’s Royal Rumble and is now set to challenge Stephanie Vaquer for the Women’s World Championship at WrestleMania 42 Night One. Check out her comments below:
