During Saturday night’s Impact Wrestling Bound for Glory Countdown show, former Knockouts Champion and Knockouts Tag Team Champion Awesome Kong was officially inducted into the Impact Wrestling Hall of Fame by her greatest rival and friend, fellow Impact Hall of Famer Gail Kim.
Kong thanked Gail Kim and said she wouldn’t be in the Hall of Fame if it wasn’t for her, and also thanked the producers who gave her matches without cutting them short because they were women’s matches.
Kong is a former two-time Knockouts Champion and former Knockouts Tag Team Champion, and debuted for Impact (then TNA) back in October of 2007. Kong officially retired from the wrestling business in August at NWA Empowerrr.
