La Primera has been absent from programming since the attack by Judgment Day.
Former Women’s World Champion Stephanie Vaquer has been absent from WWE programming since last month. The Judgment Day (Liv Morgan, Raquel Rodriguez & Roxanne Perez) ambushed Vaquer during the April 27 edition of WWE Raw.
Later in the show, Michael Cole provided an injury update, announcing that Vaquer suffered a second-degree AC sprain in her shoulder and might be out of action for a while. Reports confirmed that the injury is legitimate and noted that Vaquer will likely be out of action for the foreseeable future.
This absence also meant that WWE had to scrap the rematch between Liv and Vaquer at Backlash, which was reportedly in the works. Now with Clash in Italy on the horizon, is WWE planning to bring back Vaquer?
Will Stephanie Vaquer appear on WWE Raw this Monday?

Yes, Stephanie Vaquer is expected to return soon on television. This, according to PWInsider‘s Mike Johnson, who reported that WWE has recently held creative discussions regarding Vaquer’s return.
Additionally, there is speculation within the company that Vaquer could make her comeback as early as this week’s episode of RAW in Greensboro, North Carolina. The aforementioned May 18 edition of Raw will emanate from the Greensboro Coliseum in Greensboro and will serve as the go-home show for the upcoming Saturday Night’s Main Event.
Vaquer is likely going to resume her feud with Morgan, as even in her absence, WWE has not opted to put Morgan in a storyline with another star. Liv has only been making appearances alongside her Judgment Day stablemates and partaking in segments involving them.
With Vaquer’s reported return, fans are definitely in for a explosive segment, that might be in a rematchg, possibly at Clash in Paris.
