Setting aside the silliness of WWE renaming/un-renaming/nicknaming her, Mia Yim is a boon to WWE, and her return one year after being released alongside her now-husband Keith Lee is a great story under this new regime.

Yim returned as the solution to the OC’s “Rhea Ripley problem” during the group’s feud with Judgment Day. She filled out the group’s ranks and confronted Judgment Day’s Eradicator on multiple occasions.

WWE hasn’t done wrong by Yim (mistakes with her nickname aside). She just hasn’t had much time (two months) to really re-establish herself. With a bit of luck, she’ll have some success in the coming months.
