Xia Li’s first post-WWE match announced

The first match for former WWE wrestler Xia Li has been announced as she will compete in this year’s West Coast Pro Queen of Indies show. The event is set for Saturday, August 17th in San Francisco, California. Other women that have been announced to this point include Amazona, Keyra, Maya World, and the Great Sakuya, daughter of The Great Muta. Now going by Xia Lee, the 35-year-old will see action for the first time since an April 2024 loss on WWE Main Event. She was released that some month along with others like Jinder Mahal, Xyon Quinn, Veer and Sanga. Li had been in the WWE system since January 2017 after a tryout in Shanghai, China, and made her in-ring debut in July of that same year in the Mae Young Classic. She spent several years in NXT before getting the call-up to the main roster in the summer of 2021 after being drafted to SmackDown. While she competed for a title, she never held gold in either WWE or NXT. Source
