• Original Plan For Liv Morgan At Night Of Champions
Liv Morgan is out of action after dislocating her shoulder during her match with Kairi Sane on the June 16th episode of RAW. The injury has left her tag team partner, Raquel Rodriguez, without a teammate. However, WWE reportedly has no intention of vacating the Women’s Tag Team Titles. According to PWInsider, the company is considering former NXT Women’s Champion Roxanne Perez as a possible replacement. The report describes her as a “heavy favorite” to step in alongside Rodriguez and carry the titles forward.
In an update from Bodyslam, Liv was originally scheduled to face IYO SKY for the Women’s World Championship at Night of Champions in Saudi Arabia. As previously reported, Liv will undergo surgery and will miss the rest of 2025.
• SmackDown Star Expected To Get A Main Event Push Soon
Aleister Black is on the verge of a major push on SmackDown, as internal support for the former NXT Champion continues to grow. PWInsider reports that there’s been a noticeable shift within WWE’s creative team, with more and more voices backing Black for a move up the card. Conversations backstage have recently focused on getting him more heavily involved in main event-level storylines.
Since returning to WWE on SmackDown after WrestleMania 41, WWE officials are said to be happy with Black’s merchandise performance, which adds even more reason to elevate his status.
On last week’s SmackDown, it looked like Black started a feud with R-Truth aka Ron Killings. Black came out to face Kit Wilson of Pretty Deadly, but R-Truth attacked Wilson and then called out John Cena. Black confronted Truth backstage. Truth said it wasn’t personal. Damian Priest had to intervene to calm things down.
