WWE RAW star Kiana James was called up to the main roster this year following her tenure in NXT. However, she has officially been removed from WWE’s active roster due to a leg injury that could keep her out of action for up to six months.
Despite a huge blow to her promising main roster run, Kiana James decided to set fire to a runway for the time being. The former NXT star took to her Instagram stories to drop a video of herself walking the ramp for renowned couture designer David Alan, who is also the stylist for 16-time WWE Champion John Cena.
Kiana James also shared photos from the event, posing on the red carpet with fellow WWE stars like Shawn Spears, Kofi Kingston and even AEW star Wardlow, looking stunning in a white dress with a red jacket.
“Can we talk about the color of this blazer by @davidalanclothing?! 😍🔥
It was a pleasure to be a part of such a special and incredible event, made even better by the amazing people involved! Thank you @davidalanstyle for an amazing opportunity 🙏🏽Hair: @olesia23 🖤Tan: @thebronzingpalace ✨.”
While she raised the bar on the runway recently, Kiana James had started to make her presence felt on WWE TV with appearances in backstage segments and competing in two matches on Raw in June 2024, just as she was gaining momentum on the main roster before her injury.
Fans will undoubtedly miss her as she was beginning to carve out her place in WWE. However, the hope remains that Kiana James will recover fully and return to the ring even stronger after her recovery while continuing to make outside appearances like the event for David Alan to stay relevant.
