Already a dominant force in the WWE, Mami proved that she could transition to football if she wanted. Her Australian team don’t need to call her up just yet, as they top Group B thanks to a 1-0 win over the Republic of Ireland, Goal reported.

WWE Women’s champion Asuka and Money in the Bank winner Io Sky repped Japan, but also don’t need to worry about taking up the sport. The women’s team looked comfortable as they beat Zambia 5-0, BBC reported.

Wearing her United States of America kit, Liv Morgan didn’t do too badly, but sadly the same can’t be said for Santos Escobar.

The Latino World Order member opted not to try anything with the ball and picked it up instead.
