Gail Kim Responds to TNA President Carlos Silva’s Comments About Reinvigorating TNA’s Knockouts Division

As noted before, TNA President Carlos Silva had stated in a recent interview with The Ariel Helwani Show about the need to reinvigorate TNA’s locker room and Knockouts Division as a reason for the decision for Gail Kim’s departure from the company.

Kim responded earlier today on Twitter about Silva’s comments and how she was pushing for TNA to reinvigorate their Knockouts division for over a year before Silva came in. Kim also stated that she was fighting for this to happen since Scott D’Amore’s firing from the company in 2024.

“On comments recently about the KO division needing to be reinvigorated, I want to let it be known that I was pushing for that for a year plus before Carlos Silva came in. To grow homegrown talent and do more with the KO division. I was fighting for that since Scott departed.

My loyalty and passion towards the KO division should never be questioned and how I wanted that division to be upheld. I fought for them on the weekly. Just wanted my thoughts to be clearly delivered.”
