WWE RAW Superstar 'Michin' Mia Yim has provided a health update on her fellow O.C. member, AJ Styles.

The Phenomenal One is currently out of action after he sustained an injury at a live event last month. He confirmed on Twitter that he suffered a broken ankle but added that he didn't need surgery, just time to recover. He also mentioned that this will be the longest time he's ever been out of action.

Speaking to Sportskeeda Wrestling's Emily Mae in an exclusive interview, Mia Yim stated that AJ Styles is doing okay and that she's excited for him to come back.

"He's doing great, his spirit is really good. He's cracking jokes and he's good ol' Uncle Allen [laughs]. He's doing good. I'm not sure when he's coming back but the biggest thing with injuries is the mental state so as long as he's mentally good and I know that he's getting better everyday with the support of his family, the support of his friends. I'm excited for him to come back," said Yim. (02:34-2:57)
