Hana Kimura, a Japanese professional wrestler who was also a cast member on the most recent season of Netflix's reality show 'Terrace House,' has died at age 22, Stardom Wrestling says.
She had also recently posted a series of troubling tweets, one of which, according to a fan translation, read that she didn't"want to be a human anymore."
"Thank you to everyone who supported me," read another message, which also implied that she had been cyberbullied."I love it. I'm weak, I'm sorry." Kimura, whose mother, Kyoko Kimura, was also a pro wrestler, made her debut at Wrestle-1 in 2016, winning her first title, the JWP Junior Championship, later that year. She also wrestled for Stardom during that time, and officially left Wrestle-1 to join Stardom in 2019, where she was the leader of the Tokyo Cyber Squad faction.Kimura was also a member of"Terrace House: Tokyo," the most recent season of the Japanese reality show which sees six young adults live together.
Episodes 39-44 of"Terrace House: Tokyo" were previously scheduled to debut in Japan starting next Monday. However, Netflix announced that, in the wake of the news, their release has been postponed. The wrestling community shared their condolences to Kimura on Friday night."Distraught," wrestler Jamie Hayter wrote."I don't even know what to say or feel. Numb. I can't express it. RIP Hana Kimura. Such a wonderful human being. The gaijin helper. All the potential. A beautiful soul. Kind. I just can't even put in to f--ing words how upsetting this is. I hope you found peace."Others also paid tribute.
