Japanese wrestling promotion World Wonder Ring Stardom confirmed on Saturday that rising star Hana Kimura has died at the age of 22, and the wrestling community was stunned and saddened by the news. Kimura was also a cast member of “Terrace House: Tokyo,” a hit Netflix reality show.
In disturbing tweets that have since been deleted and translated, Kimura alluded to suffering from online bullying, and wrote that she did not “want to be a human anymore,” and “wanted to be loved.” Kimura also posted photos of what appeared to be self harm.
Wrestlers from around the world shared their memories and paid tribute to Kimura on social media.
