Mia Yim was called out by a Twitter troll who claimed she was in the promotion due to Keith Lee

WWE NXT superstar Mia Yim has shut down a troll, who called her a clown on Twitter.

Yim, who is the partner of current WWE NXT North American Champion Keith Lee, was targeted by a Twitter user.

The person took a dig at her, claiming that she was mediocre in the ring and the only reason she was being kept around was Lee. He then went on to call the HBIC a ‘clown’.

Maybe instead of playing video games u should focus on ur in ring career since it’s been mediocre. only reason ur still around is because of Keith Lee. Can’t wait for him to hit the big time so he can find himself a baddie. you’re just ganna block me after you read this clown 🤡

Yim hits back

Not one to take it lying down, Mia Yim hit back at the troll. The HBIC posted an image of the person’s Twitter profile, with a caption “who’s the real clown?”, before blocking him.

Yim, over the past month, had been involved in a storyline alongside with Keith Lee squaring up against Candice LeRae and Johnny Gargano. While Lee has seemingly moved on to Adam Cole, Yim and LeRae are still not done with the feud.

Following the events on day one of The Great American Bash last week, when the Poison Pixie attacked Yim after a Fatal-4-Way match, the two will be clashing in a ‘Street Fight’ this Wednesday.

Lee, for his part, has the chance to make history. He is to fight Cole in a winner takes all clash at the Great American Bash. The winner of this clash would be the first-ever NXT star to hold two individual belts at the same time.
