Mia Yim shares heartbreaking update after major personal loss

Mia Yim suffered a tragic personal loss recently. She has now provided a heartbreaking update ahead of SmackDown.

Mia Yim has been lost in the shuffle of WWE's women's division for the past few months. She was involved in a brief feud with Chelsea Green but has done nothing noteworthy lately. It looked like her career was starting to pick up after she won her match in the first round of the Women's United States Championship tournament.

However, her personal life took a major hit as her dog Jolene passed away this week. She made the heartbreaking announcement on social. Now, she has announced that she will be traveling for SmackDown today, and it will be the first time since losing her dog.

"Leaving for Smackdown today. I haven’t traveled since losing her. It’s been a rough morning. Pretty girl, remember I always come home. Keep your spirit following me," she wrote.

A few weeks ago, Nick Aldis made a historic announcement when he revealed the new Women's United States Championship. He announced a tournament would be taking place to crown the first-ever Women's US Champion.

The tournament featured several top stars on the blue brand. So far, Bayley, Chelsea Green, and Michin have qualified for the second round. The finals will take place at Saturday Night's Main Event on December 14.

Michin recently took to social media to post a message on her march toward her first title in WWE.

"Another day closer to the new Women’s US Championship," she wrote.

It will be interesting to see who will make history by becoming the inaugural Women's United States Champion at Saturday Night's Main Event.
