WWE Rumor Review: Last-minute change due to Roman Reigns, plans for released star's return, reason for Edge's absence after WrestleMania

#3. Mia Yim's reported WWE SmackDown debut

WWE completely botched RETRIBUTION ever since its debut in the summer of 2020. From their names, actions, and direction, the stable was mishandled at nearly every turn on RAW.

They broke up in March after T-Bar and Mace hit a double chokeslam on Mustafa Ali. The two of them remained a tag team, while Slapjack went off WWE television before his eventual release. Reckoning was also nowhere to be seen but moved to SmackDown after transitioning back into Mia Yim.

According to a report from Dave Meltzer on F4Wonline.com, Yim was scheduled to make her SmackDown debut on the May 14th episode of the blue brand. However, that never happened. She did not appear on the show before being moved back to RAW during the WWE Draft.

Mia Yim would get released from WWE in November, alongside her husband Keith Lee and other surprising names like Karrion Kross and Nia Jax. She did not wrestle a single match during 2021, according to ProFightDB. Yim's presence would have been welcome in the women's division on either show.
