Here’s everything you need to know about Gail Kim's insights on how women's wrestling has evolved over the years

The journey of women in wrestling has been nothing short of remarkable. In a recent interview on "Unlikely with Adrian Hernandez," Kim looks back on the changing world of women's wrestling and the progress made over the years.

Gail Kim Said -

"I know we have a little bit more work to do, but we've come so far," Kim said. "If you told me this when I entered the business in the year 2000, well I took my first bump in 2000, but women's wrestling was kind of still [underutilized]. There was the Golden Era of wrestling at that time, so they're really utilizing a small group of women, and so that's what inspired me."

"But to know that main-eventing a pay-per-view or main-eventing a show now is just a normal thing because they know that they can deliver, it's a great thing." Kim added. "The length of time women are given nowadays, it's great. They're able to tell a story; they're able to show what they got. I love it. I feel like the strides have been great."
