Roe v. Wade was a legal decision. Because our legal system usually respects precedent, no lower court was going to reverse it.

States have been trying to get around it, but they can’t attack the idea of abortion as a right, directly. So various schemes have been devised to attack the service providers and helpers, etc.

What TX did was make it impossible for anyone to get an abortion after 6 weeks because TX is making it illegal for anyone to help anyone get such a procedure, and furthermore offering money to anyone who identifies anyone who helps anyone get an abortion.

It’s all very contorted, but here we are.
