A "WWE Raw" superstar may have suffered a serious injury on Monday.

WWE booked two triple threat qualifying matches for the women's Money in the Bank ladder match, scheduled for June 7. In the second qualifier on the show, Rhea Ripley, Kairi Sane, and Zoey Stark shared the ring.

Things went awry when Stark attempted a dropkick. She landed awkwardly on the mat and immediately began favoring her surgically repaired knee. WWE's medical team entered the ring, and Stark was sent to the backstage area during the commercial break.

Play-by-play commentator Michael Cole then informed fans that the triple threat qualifier was changed to a singles match.

Stark looked to be in significant pain, as she was yelling before the show cut to a commercial break. Stark suffered a torn ACL and meniscus in 2021. She spent several months on the sidelines following surgery.

This was Stark's first appearance on "Monday Night Raw" since the Jan. 20 episode. Stark had been a part of the Pure Fusion Collective faction until WWE decided against re-signing the faction's leader, Sonya Deville.

Prior to Monday's episode of "WWE Raw," Stark had been seen on "WWE Main Event," where she went 1-1 against Maxxine Dupri in the span of two weeks.

Stark also performed during the April 11 episode of "Friday Night SmackDown." She teamed with the recently released Shayna Baszler in a No. 1 contender tag team gauntlet match. Stark and Baszler were eliminated, and the match was ultimately won by Bayley and Lyra Valkyria.
