TNA Hall of Famer Gail Kim will be referring the match
between NWA Women’s champion Kenzie Paige and WWE Superstar
Natalya this coming Saturday during the NWA Crockett Cup
event.
The announcement came straight from NWA CEO Billy Corgan.
“As the person who booked this very special match-up between
the WWE’s Natalya and NWA World Women’s Champion Kenzie
Paige, in a championship match no less, and given the bad
blood between the two stars, which has only built since the
Bloodsport event in Vegas and of course Ms. Paige’s unseemly
attack at The Dungeon, I’ve come to a very important
conclusion: which is that the officiating of this match must
be handled in a very particular way,” Corgan wrote.
He said that while he has full confidence in the NWA
referees, he’s concerned about their safety and wants a
clear and just result.
“I’ve named Gail Kim as the special guest referee for this
contest at Crockett Cup, Saturday, May 17th in Philadelphia;
for I know well Ms. Kim’s impeccable and unimpeachable
integrity in the sport of professional wrestling. May the
best lady win.”
