Awesome Kong
Kia Stevens (born September 4, 1977) is an American professional wrestler best known as Amazing Kong and Awesome Kong, who is currently working for Total Nonstop Action Wrestling, SHIMMER, NWA, and various independent promotions in the United States and Japan. She is the current TNA Women's Champion and NWA World Women's Champion, and she has also been World Champion in AWA Superstars of Wrestling and All Japan Women's Pro-Wrestling.
Stevens trained in Japan in the veteran women's wrestling promotion, All Japan Women's Pro-Wrestling (AJW). Stevens debuted as the Amazing Kong in AJW on October 20, 2002. Kong worked for multiple women's promotions in Japan, holding AJW's highest honor, the WWWA World Heavyweight Championship in late 2004. She also formed a tag team, named Double Kong, with Japanese legend Aja Kong feuding with Crush 2000. The two held the tag team championships with several Japanese promotions.
In January 2007, Amazing Kong defeated Nanae Takahashi for the AWA Superstars of Wrestling World Women's Champion in Tokyo, Japan. On May 5, 2007, she defeated MsChif in Streamwood, Illinois, for the NWA World Women's Championship. She is the second wrestler to hold both titles simultaneously.
In June 2007, Amazing Kong made her first appearances in the UK, where she wrestled for three different promotions in successive days. On June 15, she competed in Wales for Celtic Wrestling, beating compatriot Cheerleader Melissa. The next day, she competed for Real Quality Wrestling in Colchester, Essex, in a four way match for the RQW Women's Championship, losing via disqualification. The final of the UK dates had Kong competing at IPW:UK produced Chickfight 9 at Orpington Halls, Kent, winning an eight-woman tournament. Throughout 2006 and 2007, Amazing Kong competed in nine out of the fifteen SHIMMER Women Athletes events released on DVD, defeating such wrestlers as Nikki Roxx, MsChif, Cheerleader Melissa and Daizee Haze. On October 13, 2007, Kong got her first SHIMMER Championship title shot against Sara Del Rey, losing when she did not answer the referee's ten-count.
Not long after appearing in Ring of Honor, Stevens signed a contract with Total Nonstop Action Wrestling, to become a part of their burgeoning Knockout division. On the October 11 edition of iMPACT!, Kong made her TNA debut, defeating Gail Kim. At Bound for Glory, she participated in a 10 Knockout Gauntlet to crown the first TNA Women's Champion, where she was billed as Awesome Kong. She was eliminated by the combined effort of Angel Williams, ODB and Gail Kim. In the following weeks, she squashed Knockouts such as Talia Madison, Angel Williams, Christy Hemme, and Alexa Jade. At Turning Point, she lost a Women's Championship match to Gail Kim via disqualification, breaking her undefeated streak.
At Final Resolution Kong suffered her first pinfall loss in a No Disqualification match for the TNA Women's Championship against Kim, who pinned her with a School-girl. On the January 10 episode of iMPACT!, Awesome Kong defeated Kim to win the Women's Championship with an unknown woman wearing a burkha accompanying her to the ring.
The woman, who was later named Saed, has been by her side ever since.
( It's Cheerleader Melissa...shhhhhh)
