TNA Wrestling Hall of Famer Gail Kim spoke with Gabby LaSpisa on Gabby AF on a number of pro wrestling related topics, including how current NXT Women’s Champion Roxanne Perez is a natural and how she lives up to the “prodigy” name.

Kim said, “I got to produce her one match when she was in TNA, she did the ROH women’s title against Deonna. That match in itself, I got goosebumps just thinking about it. I saw her when I went to NXT because we have talent there and I have to drive up every week as a TNA representative. I saw her and I never really got to talk to her since I saw her match at Great American Bash. They were the main event and they killed it. I love women’s wrestling and those two [Roxanne and Thea Hail], they had match of the night to me, 100%. She is a natural. She’s the prodigy. She lives up to the name, she really does. I can’t wait to see what she does on the main roster. I think it’s about that time soon.”
