Six time Knockouts Champion Gail Kim recently announced that she would be retiring from the ring by the end of 2017.
Despite this, Gail will still have an active role in GFW as Jeremy Borash has announced during a conference call (via Wrestling INC) that the Hall of Famer will serve as a backstage agent for the Knockouts:
“This may be known but we are happy to have on board as an agent for Impact Wrestling, who will be helping with our Knockouts, Gail Kim, who announced that she would be retiring at the end of this year. So she’s going to be taking on a more behind-the-scenes role. Everybody may not know but Gail and I had a very strong friendship for the last decade. I obviously do stuff with her husband Robert Irvine, the chef. And she has an incredible mind and really somebody that’s going to take the Knockouts to the next level. So she’s in Orlando and Tampa training gals that you’re seeing.”
It was also teased during the conference call that GFW have signed two new established names to Knockouts division but have not disclosed any additional details about them.
