WWE Star Returns From Injury Layoff On Latest SmackDown
Fans were VERY happy to see this wrestler after some time off due to injuries.
Liv Morgan surprised the live crowd in attendance for Friday's episode of SmackDown by returning to TV alongside regular tag-team partner Raquel Rodriguez.
This was Liv's first on-screen appearance in around one month, and comes a little earlier than some might've expected following grim news of her injury layoff in late-May. Most fans probably didn't expect to see Morgan until late-summer at the earliest.
Liv was wheeled out after Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler defeated Alba Fyre and Isla Dawn to unify both the main roster and NXT versions of the Women's Tag-Team straps. Of course, Morgan and Rodriguez were forced to vacate their tag belts following Liv's injury, so they'll receive a crack at the new Undisputed Champs soon.
That could happen as soon as next weekend's Money In The Bank pay-per-view. If not, then don't be surprised if the match gets a featured spot on a coming episode of SmackDown over the next month or so.
Fans there live for SmackDown were very pleased to see Liv. It's also cool that WWE has something big in mind for Rousey and Baszler following their unification triumph.
