Veteran pro wrestling ring announcer David Penzer was floored to hear about the TNA Wrestling firing of Gail Kim and other key executives earlier this week.
Penzer took to X to comment on the news.
"Absolutely floored and tremendously disappointed to hear about Gail Kim. She was the rock of not only the Knockouts Division but the entire company. Can’t imagine a TNA without Gail. Sucks…”
Penzer continued, "Wanna shoot, let’s shoot. During one of the empty studio COVID tapings, all talent was gathered to have a video chat with Anthem from Canada led by our leader at the time, Ed Nordholm. One of the things that Ed announced was that they had been trying to hire @gailkimITSME full-time in talent relations for some time but they didn’t have the funds. He thanked her for sticking with TNA and said they were hiring her immediately. She became the rock of the KO Division and TNA as a whole. I say this because this morning a bunch of people forgot to read Ed’s memo. A damn shame!"
