Dot Net Exclusive Notes: Kevin Nash vs. Samoa Joe update, reaction to Gil Kim's departure, Katie Kim's true identity
Aug 22, 2008 - 02:49 PM |
-Kevin Nash and Samoa Joe are not scheduled to wrestle in October, as I incorrectly wrote in my blog earlier today. A TNA insider reports that they have never been scheduled to wrestle each other and "certainly not in October which is Bound For Glory."
-Dot Net has confirmed online reports that Katie Kim is not Gail Kim's sister. In fact, they are not even related. Katie is the adopted daughter of referee Earl Hebner.
-There are plenty of people within TNA who are shocked to see Gail leave the company, as many assumed TNA would step up and sign her. "There goes the best wrestler in the Knockouts division," one member of the TNA office told me earlier today.
Powell's POV: I was under the impression that they were building toward a Nash vs. Joe match in October, but someone within the company who has knowledge of the situation says that's not the case. I can understand not going with that match at Bound for Glory since that's the company's biggest show of the year and they presumably want to feature their biggest and/or best match. I think the quality of a Joe vs. Nash match could surprise people, but there are certainly bigger
I understand why people are disappointed to see Gail leave TNA. However, as I pointed out in my blog earlier today, it's not fair to criticize the company without knowing whether she wanted out or was making ridiculous demands that the company couldn't meet.
