Former WWE Superstar Mia Yim has given her public support to Nyla Rose after the AEW star suffered transphobic abuse on a recent edition of Dynamite.

On this past week’s Dynamite, Nyla Rose faced off with Ruby Soho in the semi-final of the TBS title tournament and, while Soho progressed against the former Women’s Champion, the match was overshadowed by the abhorrent behaviour of a fan at ringside.

While Nyla Rose was making her entrance on Wednesday’s show, a sign could be seen directed at Rose which misgendered her. The Native Beast, though, was undeterred as she responded with a middle finger.

The fan was ejected from the show, and former WWE Superstar Mia Yim has shared her support for Nyla Rose on social media.
“I stand with @NylaRoseBeast“

Rose responded to Yim saying, “You better respect your trainer afterall” before Yim added “ALWAYS I’ll never forget you teaching me some fun stuff”

While the so-called fan will quickly be forgotten about, Nyla Rose’s talents outside the ring will be showcased when she writes an X-Men comic for Marvel Comics!

Mia Yim, meanwhile, was released from her WWE contract in WWE, with many eyes on her to see where the former IMPACT Wrestling star ends up.
