Liv Morgan isn’t out of the woods yet after being placed in concussion protocol—and her WrestleMania 42 match could be in serious jeopardy.
After the brutal head collision with Roxanne Perez on the April 6 episode of WWE Raw, both women were placed in concussion protocol. While Morgan tried to show toughness with a defiant social media post aimed at Stephanie Vaquer, the latest update paints a much more uncertain picture behind the scenes.
Speaking on Wrestling Observer Live on April 7, 2026, Bryan Alvarez addressed Morgan’s status—and didn’t sound optimistic about her immediate future. He made it clear that timing is everything right now, and if WrestleMania were happening sooner, the situation would already be decided.
“They were both put in concussion protocol, but anyway, the point is—it’s ‘wait and see.’ Like, I was pretty much told if WrestleMania 42 was this weekend, that match probably ain’t happening.”
Alvarez continued by noting just how serious the collision was, while leaving the door slightly open depending on how recovery goes over the next couple of weeks: “Two weeks from now, I guess we’ll see if it happens. But it was absolutely brutal.”
Morgan is currently scheduled to challenge Vaquer for the Women’s World Championship at WrestleMania 42, but with less than two weeks to go, WWE may now be facing a real possibility of a late change. Concussion protocol isn’t something the company takes lightly, and clearance timelines can be unpredictable.
So while Morgan is publicly staying aggressive and focused, the reality behind the scenes is much more uncertain—and WWE is now in a holding pattern waiting for medical updates.
Do you think Liv Morgan will be cleared in time for WrestleMania 42, or should WWE start preparing a backup plan now? Drop your thoughts and feedback below.
