Liv Morgan Knocked Out During RAW After Accidental Kicks To The Face (VIDEO)

A scary moment occurred on Raw this week after Brie Bella knocked out Liv Morgan following two accidental kicks to the face.

It all went down during a 6-woman tag match pitting the Riott Squad against Natalya and the Bella Twins. As seen in the video below, Brie began laying in her husband’s famous Yes Kicks … but accidentally rocked Liv’s head with two brutal strikes.

Morgan tried getting back to her corner, but the 24-year-old fell to the ground a few times trying to do so and it was immediately evident something was wrong. Sara Logan eventually pulled her out of the ring and took her ringside to get checked out by the ringside doctor.

Liv surprisingly made her way back into the ring for another spot, but ducked out to the ringside area afterward to continue getting checked out as Michael Cole tried to explain her absence.

This comes just 12 days before the Riott Squad are set to face The Bella Twins again, this time with Ronda Rousey as their partner.  The match goes down at WWE Super Showdown broadcasting live from Australia on the WWE Network, next Saturday October 6th.

Brie tweeted after the incident saying, “Every match on  is an opportunity for us to entertain our fans. Our intentions as  Superstars is to win the match, never injure our opponents. Thinking about  tonight.”

Dave Meltzer noted on Wrestling Observer Radio that while she still needs to undergo more tests, she was “OK”, but might have suffered some memory loss. It’s not known if she suffered a concussion, but PWInsider had reported that she underwent concussion tests after the match.

WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley made his return to WWE TV last night on RAW.

Foley interrupted Elias. Foley says he’s actually a big fan of Elias. He gave props to Elias for playing the guitar but knocked him as a lyricist. Elias brought up Foley being here to talk about the 20th anniversary of his legendary Hell In a Cell match. Elias says that was then and this is now. He says Foley is standing in the ring with Elias but he’s standing in the ring with a broken man. Elias knocked Foley some more and a Mr. Socko chant broke out. Foley talked about how he made a proposition to Stephanie McMahon to come to RAW tonight. He didn’t want to be the guy watching Hell In a Cell from home, he wanted to ring the bell or keep the time. Elias says Stephanie probably laughed in his face and Foley agrees. Foley reminded her about the match with The Undertaker when he was almost dead. He met Stephanie for the first time after that match. Foley revealed that he will be the special referee for Strowman vs. Reigns at Hell In a Cell, inside the Cell.

Foley did the “bang! bang!” gimmick and looked to leave but Elias talked some trash. Foley says Stephanie also allowed him to make one match tonight for old times sake. Foley brings out Elias opponent – Finn Balor.

Earlier this summer, Young filled in on the Raw commentating team while Jonathan Coachman was away on other duties. Her performance was met with rave reviews.

Below is the announcement from WWE.com:

Starting tonight, Renee Young will be the first woman to join the Raw broadcast booth full-time.

She will now bring her unique voice and perspective to the longest-running weekly episodic program in the U.S. as she joins Michael Cole and Corey Graves at the commentary desk. Renee joined WWE in 2012 and has served as a backstage interviewer and commentator on Raw, SmackDown LIVE and NXT. She is currently part of the Mae Young Classic commentary team on WWE Network.

The Undertaker Returns On RAW and Confronts Shawn Michaels, Sends Warning To Triple H (Video)

Image result for The Undertaker sends a chilling warning to Triple H and Shawn Michaels

The Undertaker (video below) made his return to WWE RAW last night in Columbus.

Undertaker confronted WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels, who issued a warning to Undertaker about facing Triple H at the upcoming Super Show-Down event in Australia.

While promoting that upcoming match on October 6, the two teased a possible match with Michaels stating he stayed retired out of respect for Undertaker.

Excerpt courtesy of Mike Tedesco’s RAW recap:

“Michaels says he is a man of his word. Somebody had to restore faith in the system and stand and be committed to the words they spoke. Anyone can talk, but they go back on their word after a while. Michaels doesn’t do that. Michaels has stuck to his retirement because he’s a man of his word. Michaels has stayed retired out of respect for the system, the fans, and for The Undertaker. A “One more match” chant picks up. Michaels says every time he steps into an arena, he hears that chant. Undertaker cuts him off and asks if he’s really talking about respect. Michaels says for nearly a decade they’ve clamored for one more match. Half the locker room has beaten down his door for a dream match against him at WrestleMania. Michaels has turned down millions of dollars for one more match. Michaels has stayed retired out of respect for The Undertaker. Another “One more match” chant picks up. Undertaker just stares at Michaels. Michaels turns his back, and Undertaker asks him if it’s respect or fear. Michaels turns and looks furiously at him.”

Last Night On RAW: Kevin Owens Quits, HBK, Trish Stratus, Bella Twins, Braun Strowman

Below are some interesting things from last night’s WWE RAW in Toronto:

Kevin Owens, who suffered defeat moments earlier to Intercontinental Champion Seth Rollins, grabbed a live microphone after his match and sat in the center of the ring to state, “I quit” before walking out.

It was announced that “HBK” Shawn Michaels will be on RAW next week to give his take on The Undertaker vs. Triple H for the last time ever on Oct. 6 in Australia at WWE Super Show-Down.

WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus appeared on RAW to confront Elias after insulting her hometown of Toronto. Stratus then politely asked Elias to leave the ring before the superstar singer remarked, “I don’t date women in their 60’s.” This was met with a smack across the face from Stratus. She made note that in about two months from tonight she will be stepping back in between the ropes to face Alexa Bliss at the Evolution event in New York. Trish stayed ringside while Natalya squared off with Alicia Fox, who was accompanied by Alexa Bliss and Mickie James, and was also featured in a backstage segment with The Bella Twins.

In a backstage segment with Ronda Rousey, Natalya and Trish Stratus, The Bella Twins announce that they will return to in-ring action next week on RAW.

Braun Strowman announced that he is cashing in MITB on Sept. 16 at Hell in a Cell pay-per-view against Universal Champion Roman Reigns in a Hell in a Cell Match.

Later in the main event Strowman teamed with Reigns against Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre. Strowman turned on Reigns and gave him a beat down with Ziggler and McIntyre.
