10 Times WWE Superstars Were Legitimately Knocked Out
Please, do not try this at home...
7. Quelled Riott
This one made more than a few headlines not only for the injury taking place, but for an apparent lack of proper protocol taken in the aftermath. On an episode of Raw in September 2018, The Riott Squad took on The Bellas Twins and Natalya, in what amounted to basic build for both Super Show-Down and Evolution the following the month. Brie Bella took the heat for the spot that would injure Liv Morgan.
As Brie performed the sharp kicks that are a staple of husband Daniel Bryan's arsenal, she mistimed a few of the strikes and kicked Morgan square in the head, knocking her out. During the confusion, the match continued on and Morgan, after regaining consciousness, re-inserted herself into the action, taking part in a triple Suplex spot. Neither the referee nor any presiding physician stopped the match or at least tried to keep her out of it, which isn't a good look. Morgan was formally diagnosed with a concussion as a result of the errant kicks.
