The only thing I don't like is that they're having her beat up women who haven't even had a match in TNA, i.e. Talia Madison. She should've started with people like Christy Hemme and Miss Brooks while the newcomers get the chance to show their skills.

Nope, she is awful...I knew she wasn't created by TNA but I must admit that I have not seen her work...
She is big, she walks with a hunch, dresses like Xena warrior princess(boobs not supported), has a wrestlecrap look on her face...f***ing stupid.

I haven't seen any in-ring ability from Amazing Kong.
I watched her matches in Japan on Utube and only see her do chops, spinning fist, double underhook facebuster, torture rack, powerbomb, and top rope splash.

Screw you all who doubt Kong. She's my favorite womens wrestler.
She beats up skinny bitches who send the wrong message to our youth about what women are supposed to be. She can make tons of money in this business with the gimmick she has.
Go Kong go!
PS - And "in-ring ability" isn't determined by how many moves one does. It how they react to moves, how they sell their character to the audience and do the moves they know well. Raven himself said wrestlers should keep it down to five basic moves that they do perfectly and THEN and only then go off from there and do other moves as it'll help them get over. She doesn't need to do more and more moves. The way the above poster thinks "in-ring ability" is the number of flashy moves one does by what they're implying.
Reading that and then seeing your sig is f***ing funny.

Look at a guy like Kenta Kobayashi. His moveset consists of 80% chops and he makes it work.

Uh, you do realize she has been working for years and TNA didn't come up with her out of the blue..... right? I think he's saying TNA just loves picking up big goofy idiot characters, not that they invent them. I'm still not buying into the Kong love. Male wrestlers like her are a dime a dozen. We're supposed to be impressed by a hoss just because said hoss happens to be a woman? And the people telling us this are the same people who want women's wrestling to be taken just as seriously as men's wrestling? I think it has something to do with the fact that she can do power moves better than 99.9% percent of the male hosses that Vince/Johnny Ace have* a hard-on for.

It seems to me people think it ONLY works because she has a vagina. Male wrestlers do what she does and people yawn. Don't get me wrong, she's a good addition to the TNA women's division to mix things up, but I don't think she's worthy of the adoration she gets.

i don't think people would yawn if she was a man. wait until people start getting some offense in right now they really want to build her up as a huge monster, then who ever takes her down will be elevated tremendously. i actually think she is very similar to umaga, both power move based, heavy, not overly tall, throws in flying splashes. umaga doesn't have a plethora of technical holds either. i enjoy it. it also helps that the standard for women's wrestling these days has been the wwe and if people don't agree that kong is a step up for mainstream women's wrestling in the u.s.a. then they can go back to watching candice michelle get praised for doing four moves in a row without messing up. personally i enjoy what kong brings to women's wrestling which has been misrepresented to the mainstream for to long i feel.

a step up or a step back? oh i believe i mean a step up. in my personal opinion, this is just me, kong is way more interesting to watch actually wrestle than many the wwe has put their women's title on. now maybe you would prefer a return to the days of women's wrestlers who are nothing but looks fighting in pudding and such, i don't.
