10 Wrestlers Who Will Never Work For WWE Again (And Why)
6. Gail Kim
Gail Kim stands out as a real rarity in the world of professional wrestling. An extremely talented and popular female performer, TNA have actually booked her better over the years than WWE managed across 2 different stints in the promotion. If recent revelations from WWE Hall Of Fame announcer Jim Ross are anything to go by, Vince McMahon was apparently not keen on her Asian heritage. It's true that Kim did hold the WWE Women's Title in 2003, shortly after her first debut. Winning a Battle Royal on Raw to earn the crown, Kim later lost out to Molly Holly just shy of one month later. This fleeting reign with the gold was as good as it got Gail, who made a name for herself in TNA before returning in 2008. Many fans felt WWE couldn't fail to push her, given her excellent matches against Awesome Kong in Impact Wrestling. Unfortunately, that never happened. So miserable was Kim in WWE during her second tenure, that she actually eliminated herself from a different Battle Royal. Between the fact she hated life in the WWE system, and the recent rumours surrounding McMahon's distaste for her ancestry, there's no chance Gail Kim is coming back to WWE for a third time.
