As you may have noted last night, Rhea Ripley did not have any physical interaction with Liv Morgan or anyone else since and has not since returning to WWE programming.
PWInsider.com is told by multiple sources that currently, Ripley is not expected to wrestle until the 8/3 Summerslam event in Cleveland.
We are also told that Ripley has not been 100% cleared for physicality but sources expect that process to be completed by the PPV. She will not have any physical interactions until she is cleared, so there will be a lot of teases and working around it until she gets the 100% green light.
We are also told that initially, there was talk of Ripley returning to storylines at Summerslam or the Raw the day after, but instead the decision was made to go with her vs. Morgan at Summerslam, in part because we are told by sources that Ripley voiced that she believed she would be good to go by the August event, one of the biggest shows of WWE's calendar.
Ripley was injured during a backstage Raw brawl back in April, requiring her to vacate the WWE Women's Championship on Raw. PWInsider.com was told at the time by multiple sources that the injury occurred when Ripley was sent into a wall by Liv Morgan, injuring the AC joint where her collarbone and right shoulder are connected. It was seen as a freak injury at the time.
