Wrestling world mourns death of 22-year-old Hana Kimura
Hana Kimura seemed to have it all—fame in many countries, a successful wrestling career, and a spot on the Netflix reality TV show Terrace House—all by the age of 22.
The Japanese woman also won Stardom's Fighting Spirit Award last year.
Today, Stardom announced that Kimura has died without mentioning the cause.
It came after she posted some troubling messages about being harassed along with a photo of her cat.
