A WWE star recently fell off the top rope in a scary bitch during a singles match. The incident raised a lot of concern at ringside regarding a potential injury to the star. The person in question is none other than EVOLVE’s Anya Rune who has gathered a lot of attention over the last few months due to her Anime-inspired gimmick.
The Stamford-based company has been trying to build their next generation of stars organically under their own developmental promotions. With the acquisition of EVOLVE, the company has been trying to create new stars by scouting young college talent and repackaging them with modern gimmicks. The Japanese anime culture has been on the rise globally over the last few years and WWE decided to capitalise on this.
Thanks for the submission!
Anya Rune made her EVOLVE debut as the Anime Girl back in March in a Fatal 4-Way Qualifying match for the EVOLVE Women’s Championship. While she failed to win the match, she continues to appear on the show spontaneously. She recently faced Zena Sterling in a singles match on the show where she tried to attempt a move from the top rope. However, she wasn’t able to hit the move as she slipped from the top rope.
The Anime Girl decided to give it another shot but failed again. Sterling hit her with a Sideslam to pick up the win in the match. People at ringside and commentary were concerned about Rune and were hoping she hadn’t injured herself. Before taking her first leap from the top rope, the Anime Girl said this:
“In the name of UWU, this anime girl is going to FLY.”
A lot of people criticised the gimmick when it debuted and are now even more concerned about Anya Rune’s in-ring performance. Fans are curious to see what is next for her in WWE.
A lot of WWE stars have been getting injured lately
While WWE has been getting a lot of momentum following WrestleMania, a lot of their stars are on the shelf due to injury. The list includes major names like Kevin Owens, Randy Orton, Bronson Reed and Logan Paul. Owens has been away from in-ring competition ever since he suffered a neck injury last year and had to miss WrestleMania.
Orton suffered a back injury during his match against Cody Rhodes in the main event of WrestleMania 42 Saturday. Bronson Reed got injured earlier in the year during a match on WWE RAW. Logan Paul tore his tricep a few weeks ago at Saturday Night’s Main Event during a tag team title defense against the Street Profits.
Fans across the world are hoping that all these WWE stars get healed and make their return to the squared circle soon.
