Liv Morgan Allegedly Injured Rhea Ripley’s Right Shoulder
Coming in with a dominant championship reign and significant victories in her wrestling career, including her WrestleMania 40 win, Rhea Ripley recently suffered a massive blow to her career after a severe injury. Competing against Liv Morgan during this week’s episode of Monday Night RAW in Montreal, Ripley delivered the unfortunate news of being forced out of action due to injury.
While specific details regarding the injury are yet to be disclosed, reports from PWInsider suggest that Rhea Ripley suffered an AC Joint sprain. The injury apparently occurred when the wrestler was sent into a wall by Liv Morgan during a confrontation, which ended up damaging the AC joint connecting Ripley’s collarbone and right shoulder.
Rhea Ripley Requires Three Months to Recover Completely
