Gail Kim is undergoing surgery this morning to have her appendix removed.

The 7-time Knockouts Champion revealed on Twitter that she thought she had food poisoning on Sunday night. It turned out to be appendicitis, a condition that can get very serious if not treated in a timely manner.

Thought I had food poisoning tonight. Turned out it was appendicitis and caught it in the nick of time. Surgery in the am!

Gail Kim retired from active competition in February. She’s been acting as a backstage producer/agent for Impact’s Knockouts Division and held a seminar for RISE Wrestling this weekend.

We’d like to wish Gail Kim a speedy recovery!
