The O.C.'s second WWE run went under the radar as the faction was sidelined for a while when AJ Styles went on a hiatus. Today, a top name reacted to the group's second run and sent a mesage on social media ahead of Friday Night SmackDown.
Almost two years ago, Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows reunited to re-form The O.C. on WWE's main roster. However, they needed someone to take care of Rhea Ripley, and out came Mia Yim, who returned to the Stamford-based promotion for a second run and joined the faction.
Today, Mia Yim reacted to a post on Instagram, as it was the two year anniversary of her return to WWE. The 35-year-old star reacted to her comeback and The O.C.'s second run in the promotion with a message in her Instagram story.
"Wild how time flies," Yim wrote.

The O.C.'s Karl Anderson won't compete in WWE for a while
Earlier this year, AJ Styles seemingly ended his alliance with The O.C. and turned heel on Friday Night SmackDown. Later, Mia Yim got busy with her singles run in the women's division and Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows went to the developmental brand.
The duo went after the NXT Tag Team Championship and came close to winning it on one occasion. However, the momentum was derailed as Anderson got injured and the two haven't been on weekly television since.
Later, it was revealed Anderson got surgery done for his nagging issues and is currently recovering. Speaking on the TalkNShop podcast, the 44-year-old addressed his injury and also a potential timeframe for his return.
"That's the prognosis, I flew to Birmingham, and I got surgery. We're not going to go too deep into it. It doesn't really matter. The prognosis is six to nine months out," Anderson said. [From 04:50 to 04:58]
