Gail Kim’s New Role with Global Force Wrestling
Jeremy Borash revealed during a media called on today that Gail Kim will be an agent for Global Force Wrestling following her in-ring retirement.
“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,” said Borash. “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.”
Borash also mentioned that GFW has signed two new established female names but didn’t reveal any information on who exactly they are. We will have to wait and find out.
Adam Cole’s WWE Status
While Adam Cole may possibly be joining WWE, he is currently a free agent and hasn’t signed a deal yet with the company. The feeling is that he will eventually end up in NXT as one of the top stars for the brand unless something changes.
It’s also worth noting that Impact Wrestling is also interested in trying to sign Cole. We will keep you updated on his status when we find more information out.
The Taz Show Recap – The Rock for President, Universal Title Picture, Strowman’s Surgery, More!
Block 1:
Taz comments on the news from yesterday, when The Rock said he wouldn’t count out a run for the Presidency at some point in the future. Taz thinks it’d be awesome if The Rock ran for the Presidency. He says that The Rock is a huge star who is almost universally liked by everyone. He’s also a very intelligent man, who Taz would support if he announced his candidacy.
Taz says that while it’s no secret that The Rock is one of the most gifted talkers in the history of professional wrestling, he was no slouch in the ring either. Rock is a big, strong guy who could really work in the ring, and Taz has the upmost respect for him.
A listener calls into the show and asks Taz if WWE performers have any form of insurance through the company, or if you need to have your own insurance policies. Taz says that WWE performers are independent contractors, and this means that you’re responsible for your own insurance policies.
However, if you get injured working for WWE, Vince McMahon and the company always takes care of you. If your kids or spouse needs a medical procedure, the company will not cover that. He says that some former employees take shots at the company for their policies in this regard, but Taz will never do that. From his experience, Vince McMahon does whatever he can to take care of his employees.
