Gail Kim Claims She Has Quit WWE, Melina Gone Too

Gail Kim (Photo by flippunkrocker on Flickr)

Who didn't see this coming? So, on her official twitter Gail posted:

Hey I just wanted every1 to know that I officially quit WWE on monday. So thank u wwe fans! This won't be the last u see of me. Love u guys :)

Considering what we have reported about Gail, something like this seemed inevitable. Dave Meltzer said, when talking about her admission that she had eliminated herself as a protest for being told to get out of the ring early, "she's toast" and he would be "shocked if she were still around in three weeks." Well, it's seems Gail decided, "You can't fire me, I quit." Of course, as one reader suggested, this could just be a work-shoot angle, although as I noted about Gail's self-elimination on Raw last week, it makes little sense. I fail to see any real pay off in an angle where Gail threatens to quit because she is being under-used. I don't know why WWE would want to something like that (yes, they did something similar with Punk, but he's a main eventer and got a ton of screen time; Gail hasn't had any.)

So what's next for Gail? Will she retire? Go back to TNA (and, hey, who wouldn't want to go back to that bottomless bit of misery and dispair?)  We can speculate, but my guess is she's done and will likely focus on her upcoming marriage to celebrity chef Robert Irvine. 

WWE have also noted on their site has also noted that troubled diva Melina Perez is also gone, which should also come as no shock whatsever.

I think Gail is gonna get married and settle down

Melina? Idk. She might get advice from Foley on TNA and choose Shimmer or ROH

She never wanted to leave TNA in the first place, but they weren't paying her anything

I can see her going back if they give her a big contract, but otherwise she’ll probably going to take it easy for a while.

"In fact, most of these free-swinging Padres couldn’t hit Dock’s funky palm ball. I threw it often. But by then, also, the first acid distractions entered: the TV flickered; the cracks in the wall started to move; the hand soap started to breathe — those sorts of things. Plus I was drawn to the outdoor garden between innings. Rain was near, I sensed." - A.J. Daulerio

Who else is left that is talented?

Natalya and Beth? Kharma may not be back until Mid-Next Year,Eve I think wants to improve and anybody else sucks pretty much.

Probably means pushes for AJ and Naomi

They are talented and can work better than most divas save Beth and Nattie

If TNA ever got serious about that Knockouts weekly show

Now’s the time to do it. Give em an hour on Wednesday nights. ?Of course a lot would have to change with TNA’s business practices though. Maybe SHIMMER could convince a company to give em an hour. Just point to TNA’s ratings during Knockouts matches since they’ve been on TV and there’s a chance someone might take a chance on getting an easy 1.0 in the ratings

Wouldn't be shocked to see

Gail and Smith show up in ROH as they try to launch their TV show. Some of the refugees from the X division over in TNA too.

Saw a rumor

The Young Bucks could be WWE bound

That would still leave Amazing Red and Jay Lethal (even if he is doing that NASCAResque promotion out of the IMPACTzone)

Good for Gail she was never used to a tenth of her potential in the WWE, hopefully she and Melina will be scooped up by TNA which needs to re-start their knockouts division.

Eh

It sucks, but whatever. It just is disapointing, because she’s hot. She may be 34 or whatever, but she was like the second hottest one there.
