Speaking to Victoire, Kong reflected on her TNA run.

“Off and on, five or six. I mean, because I left and came back, left, came back. I think the original run was about two and a half, three years, and came back for another couple years, and then we dip my toe in every now and again because TNA is, for me, it’s like all family, when you’re there, you’re family, [like] Olive Garden. So [I] always will come back to TNA or do something for TNA because I came into my own at TNA," she said.

Kong competed at TNA iMPACT! 1000, teaming with Gail Kim, Jordynne Grace, Mickie James & Trinity to defeat Angelina Love, Deonna Purrazzo, SHAWntourage (Gisele Shaw & Savannah Evans) & Tasha Steelz.

Elsewhere during the interview, Kong commented on AEW still paying her after her initial run. You can find her full comments by clicking here.
