A pair of WWE superstars have been placed on concussion protocol less than a fortnight before WrestleMania 42 after a nasty accident on Monday Night Raw.

The 'Show of Shows' takes place in Las Vegas on 18 April and 19 April, with things hotting up on WWE TV and a total of 13 matches announced for the two nights of action in Sin City.

However, there are concerns about the status of Liv Morgan and Roxanne Perez after a segment they were involved in did not got to plan.

The Judgement Day members were chatting backstage at the Toyota Center when women's world champion Stephanie Vaquer, attacked her WrestleMania opponent Liv Morgan from behind.

Vaquer crashed into the 2026 Royal Rumble winner, causing her to collide face first with Perez at a sickening impact.

After the skulls crashed together, Morgan was then thrown into the television screen head first - causing a huge crack in the monitor.

Both women were left in a heap on the floor as Vaquer walked off but it's emerged that there are worries about the pair. According to Bryan Alvarez of the Wrestling Observer, Morgan and Perez have been placed in legitimate concussion protocol and are being evaluated by medical staff at WWE.

"Both Liv and Roxanne in concussion protocol after they clonked skulls HARD when Stephanie jumped Liv from behind. Hopefully we didn’t just witness a disaster affecting WrestleMania,” Alvarez said.

WWE take concussions extremely seriously and only clear their performers to compete if it is safe to do so.

Perez had effectively replaced Morgan in the Judgement Day, winning the women's tag team championships alongside Raquel Rodriguez.

She spent a period on the sidelines after having a benign cyst was removed from her back. The Prodigy's return last week saw her help Morgan and attack Vaquer on Raw.

Morgan, meanwhile, was absent for five months after a shoulder injury required surgery. The former champion returned at Survivor Series: War Games and then won the Royal Rumble in Saudi Arabia, selecting Vaquer as her opponent on the big stage at WrestleMania.

Neither superstar has officially commented on the injury situation.
