BACKSTORY
Xiong Yan built her reputation the hard way, through a long regional campaign with grinding, unforgiving fights. A standout on DRIP 5, she entered the event viewed as a near lock for a Union GP contract, only to get overwhelmed in the first round that left her on the outside looking in. Rather than chasing shortcuts, Xiong chose patience, signing with Ryūjin FC to rebuild momentum and redefine her legacy.

Known for her suffocating wrestling and calm, stoic demeanor, Xiong doesn’t fight for highlights, she fights for certainty. Each takedown is deliberate, each round a test of will. In Ryūjin FC, she embraces the role of veteran standard bearer, determined to prove that her story didn’t stall at DRIP 5. It simply took a longer, harder road forward.
