Gail Kim addressed the state of women’s wrestling in her monthly column in the March issue of Total Wrestling Magazine, which is available now to read for FREE at this link.
“NXT has proven that with opportunity and time, the women can put on a show, with great athletes and characters emerging from there,” Kim wrote. “Total Divas, reality show has given the women a platform to be seen but not necessarily as the strong empowered women they really are. With WWE Raw on for three hours, I feel as though they could be given a much more prominent and positive role. Why not follow the successful formula that NXT has? It was at such a low point recently that the fans spoke out with #GiveDivasAChance trending and the fans voices were heard loud and clear. I hope this path continues for all of us women.
“With TNA president Dixie Carter and Stephanie McMahon in prominent positions of the top two wrestling promotions in America at the moment, the future can be very bright for women in pro wrestling. Perhaps equality some day?”
