IWGP World Heavyweight Champion SANADA appreciates Gail Kim’s contributions to wrestling. The Japanese star claimed that the former WWE/IMPACT Superstar is the best female wrestler.

IWGP World Heavyweight Champion SANADA recently shared a photo with Gail Kim on Instagram. He mentioned that Kim is the best wrestler among women.

“I’ve never seen any better female wrestler than yourself. You are the best that I have seen,” SANADA posted.

Gail Kim responded to the message thanking the Japanese star. She also mentioned that SANADA has grown over the years to become one of the top stars in New Japan.

“I’m honored that you would even say that! I’m glad that I have been able to see you become the great wrestler you are now and to see this from the start! Mr GQ!!,” Gail Kim replied.

Kim has not wrestled in four years. Her last match was at IMPACT Wrestling’s Rebellion pay-per-view. At the event, she wrestled controversial star Tessa Blanchard in a losing effort. However, that will change as Gail Kim is set to make her return to in-ring action on the 1000th episode of IMPACT Wrestling.

The IMPACT Wrestling Hall of Famer began her in-ring career back in 2000. Although she had wrestled in WWE for more than five years in total, the most success she saw was in IMPACT. Kim is the inaugural Knockouts Champion. She managed to capture the title a record seven times throughout her entire career.

Gail Kim had also captured the Knockouts Tag Team Champion once in her career. Her partner was Madison Rayne. In 2016, Gail Kim entered the elite list of IMPACT Wrestling’s Hall of Fame.
