Mia Yim Replaced By Dakota Kai In WWE NXT WarGames Match Tonight
There was an injury angle on tonight's WWE NXT "Takeover: WarGames 2019" Pre-show that saw Mia Yim suffer an injury after a backstage attack by a mystery attacker. Team Captain Rhea Ripley later talked Dakota Kai into replacing Yim.
Yim legitimately suffered a broken nose during her Ladder Match loss to Io Shirai last Wednesday, so that could be why she was pulled.
With @MiaYim sidelined after a backstage attack, @RheaRipley_WWE needs to make a game-time decision...
