The reason that she was released from the promotion is because of an incident between her and Reby Sky (Reby Sky Hardy) in Manchester, England during TNA’s tour of the UK. The incident took place in the locker room and there was apparently some bad blood over comments made years earlier.
There have been tons of incidents in the past between wrestlers but this one involved Kong allegedly attacking Sky in front of her baby boy Maxel. Kong threw Sky’s bags out of the dressing room and that led to an argument. Sky stood her ground and said that this is not the 80s so Kong could go “f**k off.” That is when Kong allegedly attacked her by driving her into a concrete wall and choking her in front of Maxel.
