Last Match: vs. Nikki Cross (31 December 2020 Main Event)

It's just a bit upsetting that the ultra-talented Mia Yim's final WWE match came under the 'Reckoning' gimmick. Yep, she was still rocking the Retribution sh*te when she dropped to defeat at the hands of future superhero Nikki Cross last December.

WWE didn't get around to pressing the reset button post-faction.

Weirdly, the company announced that Yim (sans masked gimmick) would be working exclusively on Raw during the 2021 Draft. Why bother making her part of that at all if they had no proper plans in mind? Christ knows - 'it's WWE' might be the best response to that.
