Gail Kim recently had a quick interview with the Fightful Podcast in which she was asked if other wrestlers have asked her permission to use the “Eat DeFeat” move:
“Some people have and some people haven’t,” Kim began.
“Mia Yim did. I don’t really know that many people that have used it. I know Enzo has used it. I never invented it. I learned it in my wrestling school that I trained at in Toronto.”
She followed up by saying, “My only thing is you don’t have to ask me, but I don’t like it when people don’t use it as a finisher because that’s what’s more disrespectful. Don’t use it as a transition move. Use it as a finish.”
