After the shocker that was Gail Kim leaving Total Nonstop Action Wrestling, the first thing that should come to mind is...well, who is going to replace her in the Knockout division? Is it someone on the TNA roster? Or does TNA need to hire someone new to replace her? Imo, it has to be Taylor Wilde. She was getting the bigger push while Kim was still with TNA anyway, and she is starting to get over with the TNA fans. Also, Taylor is a solid worker and she has the capabilities to not only be the next Gail Kim of the Knockouts division, but maybe even surpass her. I agree with some of the people about TNA jumping the gun with Taylor's push, but at least she is starting to get over and she could turn into something special in the next few months.

Another name that comes to mind is Roxxi. She still hasn't gotten revenge for her head getting shaved, so what TNA could do is give her Gail Kim's spotlight. Basically, have Roxxi come out and say that she has been waiting all these months for the right opportunity to get her revenge, and she found out that No Surrender is the right time. Then have Roxxi feud with Angelina for a few more months, with the winner eventually moving on to challenge Taylor.

Anyway, who do you guys think is going to replace Gail Kim in the knockout division? As I said before, do you think it will be someone on the TNA roster, or will TNA need to hire someone new?

Cheerleader Melissa plz. Kong needs to break away from Saeed sooner or later, so why not now.

I think Kong should fight Abyss. Seriously, she needs to fight some dudes, some real competition. Taylor Wilde will be built up as the Trish Stratus of TNA. She has all the tools that she needs to be a successful woman wrestler. Other than that, I think Angelina Love could step up as a serious competitor, with Velvet Sky as her manager I guess because from what I have seen, Angelina is way better than Sky even though Sky won a bunch of titles in that indy Women's Fed. I can't see Traci stepping up, hasn't happened yet and won't happen ever. With Taylor as champ, ODB would have to turn heel in order to get a decent push.

Taylor Wilde is the obvious choice for becoming the face of TNA, however them putting her in bathing swimsuit contests is just degrading her character. TNA knockouts are not divas! Seriously Gail Kim's out the door and they're doing beauty pageants? Somebody sack Russo.

On the other hand I agree with peep, get Saeed out of the headress and into the cheerleader outfit.

If they go by popularity, then this isn't even a question: The OH DEE BEE, OOOHHH!! But really, I think they'll decide it based on which of the next feuds come off the best. ODB is teasing something with Kong, so we'll see how that goes. Roxxi still has bones to pick with TBP, but she's been doing a lot of bimbo brawls lately and even comes to the ring with the Shopping Cart of Fun, so I think they're grooming her for something with Moose when she returns. Moose is Chick Foley, so anyone who feuds with her is going to pushed hard, win or lose. Taylor Wilde is good, but nothing specific comes to mind in terms of what she could do. She could tag with Roxxi against TBP, and it'll be a coin toss as to who comes out of that more popular. But if Roxxi is with Moose, Taylor will probably take on TBP alone, which is pretty big.

So basically, my vote is for whoever feuds with Moose when she returns. Gail got to the top by feuding with the most extreme Knockout at the time, but I think we can agree that Moose tops Kong. Most likely to feud with Moose are Roxxi or ODB, so my vote is for one of those two.

Taylor Wilde- She is over with the fans and has already proved she can wrestle about just as good as Gail Kim and they seem vary similar to me.

ODB- Over with the fans, funny, has a good gimmick and can wrestle pretty good.

Roxxi Laveaux- Gotta love her matches.
