The change in plans was necessitated when Morgan’s singles match against Kairi Sane was abruptly stopped. The injury occurred when Morgan landed awkwardly on her right arm and shoulder following a takedown from Sane. WWE medical personnel immediately attended to Morgan at ringside as the program went to a commercial break.

When the broadcast returned, it was announced the match had been halted, with Kairi Sane declared the winner. Commentary later provided an update that Morgan was believed to have suffered a dislocated shoulder.
