Welcome to Crossbody of Work, a show where we break down a wrestler’s career through five of their biggest matches.
This week we are covering one of the most accomplished women’s wrestlers of the 2000s and 2010s: Gail Kim. We take a look at her very successful WWE debut in 2003. Then we cover her TNA run, including a pair of legendary matches involving herself and Awesome Kong. On top of Kim’s great career, Evan & Javier also talk about:
- How poorly some commentary has aged
- Shoutouts for Molly Holly & Victoria
- ODB entering the Hair Hall of Fame
- The dangers of covering hockey games
And a lot more.
