Gail Kim Talks TNA, GLOW, Retirement

Gail Kim recently spoke to Sean Waltman's X-Pac 1,2,360. You can see submitted highlights below.

Match layout from WWE compared to TNA:

Sexyy Red Samples 'Sexy Boy'

“In WWE (matches) it’s a little bit more controlled in ways. For example, you know we always had Fit (Finlay) as our agent… well, most of the time. And so he would tell us to do certain things. Not the whole match. You know because we kind of work together but if there is something he really wanted us to do then we would do it. Whereas in Impact it was kind of different where we have more independence.”

The Netflix GLOW series and trying out to train the actresses:

“I watched the whole season in two days. I love it. I love it and she (Awesome Kong) was a rock star so I’m proud of her. It’s funny because I found out about the show happening and maybe a few months before it all started I tried to get the job to train the actresses. I wasn’t trying to get an on screen roll and I found out Chavo Guerrero got it. Chavo is one of my good friends, and I’m happy for him.”

The TNA Hall of Fame changing its letters and who should be the next inductee:

”I’m pretty sure they’re (GFW) dropping the TNA. Not sure how that’s going to go. We’re going to have to wait and see I guess, right? The person I feel is most deserving probably because I’ve worked with him for so long, I don’t know how the fans feel, but I think they would agree is Abyss. Abyss has been there (GFW) a long time he’s such a great talent and he produces behind the scenes. I have nothing against all the other producers but I think he is the best producer. I mean he’s so good and what he contributes to the company because I know he deserves it.”

Plans after retirement in 2017:

“Well I started producing for (GFW) and so I just started that at the last TV. I’m kind of doing double duty right now and so I’m really looking forward to doing that.”
