Gail Kim looked back at her very first steel cage match that took place against Jacqueline:

View this post on Instagram

My very first steel cage match with Jackie Moore. I literally begged for this match to happen and yes I jumped! I always say wrestling is the only thing that makes me cry in this world lol and I literally cried from happiness. Memorable moment for me. Since then I've had countless steel cage matches. And streetfights and ladder matches and many others. #tnaknockouts #impactwrestling #WrestlingWednesday
