This week’s WWE Raw was the go-home show to the biggest sports entertainment event of the year—WrestleMania. It wasn’t very match-heavy, instead more storyline-driven, and a fan-favorite on-screen personality got caught in the crosshairs of a scuffle between WWE Women’s Champion Stephanie Vaquer and Liv Morgan.
Cathy Kelley was interviewing the champion ahead of her title defense this weekend when Morgan jumped her from behind. This caused Kelley to be knocked down and injured. WWE officials quickly rushed to her aid to help her to the back as she limped her way up the ramp.
Later in the show, Michael Cole issued an update on Kelley’s condition on commentary. “We have a quick update on our broadcast colleague Cathy Kelley, who was involved in the crossfire of that Liv Morgan and Stephanie Vaquer fight moments ago. She’s been attended to by the trainers but it looks like everything is going to be ok,” said Cole.

While she’s not a wrestler, Kelley has expressed interest in embracing physicality in the ring at various points in her broadcast career. Last April, PWInsider and Dave Meltzer of the WrestlingObserver Newsletter reported that Kelley had been training for a potential in-ring role as a manager within the company. While that hasn’t happened yet, she sure put her training to good use on WWE Raw.
