Methinks this one is going to get messier than Paul McCartney and Heather Mills. So much for an amicable split, huh? At Monday night’s Impact taping, TNA took aim at the dearly departed Gail Kim just one week after her shock exit from the company. Last week, we were told that TNA and Gail parted on the best of terms and the door would be left open – turns out TNA is not so happy after all.
At Monday’s taping, TNA filmed a backstage segment with new Knockouts leader, Traci Brooks entering Jim Cornette’s office with Cornette talking to Traci about laying down the law with the Knockouts. Traci said something to the effect of “replacing top stars once they had become stale” and that she had some work to do with that. This footage was shown on the titantron to the crowd in attendance and will be aired this Thursday on Impact.
All I have to say to this news is *like The Joker in The Dark Knight* ha ha ha… ha ha ha ha. Let’s face it, we all know if Gail said she wanted to come back to TNA, Dixie Carter and Jeff Jarrett would sign her in an instant, shoot her top of the division and give her the Knockout Championship within a month. Fact. As Ashlee Simpson would say, it’s a bittersweet world but I doubt Gail is losing any sleep, in fact, I’m sure she’s being comforted by all the extra 0′s in her bank account from her new WWE deal.

Eh, kind of expected that. TNA’s always been known to take pot shots..

Not surprised at all. TNA is the only company that would do something like that. If WWE lets go of a superstar, they just forget about them. (Not in a mean way though.)

TNA womens division is gonna go DOWN DOWN and DOWN because of the loss of gail kim honestly WWE made a great move. and isn’t it obvious that TNA was gonna make a pot shot

TNA’s womens division isn’t going down. Wasn’t it the beautiful people who were the constant ratings draw? ODB is over and…..and they’re just not going down. I don’t even really watch TNA but losing Gail isn’t that big of a deal. No one is ever the be all end all. Angelina Love for champ! Because I’d watch if she was champ…
Bringing in Gail is a good move by WWE in theory but many people thought the same about the Divas Championship…

Still think Vince let his ego run his checkbook. My feeling is he overpaid to grab a top star from a rival promotion to rub in their faces. Especially when you consider all the rumors of Mick Foley going to TNA. This whole thing sounds a lot like “you take one of mine, I’m taking one of yours”.

I think WWE doesn’t need Gail Kim at the time!She was doing very well in TNA.
