Terrible Contract Signing #4: Kharma (Awesome/Amazing Kong.)
Back in 2007, while WWE was still putting on bra and panty matches, TNA signed Kia Stevens, better known by her ring name Awesome Kong.
Unlike other women wrestlers in America during this time, Awesome Kong utilized a brutal Japanese Strong Style in the ring. He size, power, and most of all intimidating presence led to her reigning as Knockouts champion sporadically for two years.
Then, in 2010, WWE hired Kia Stevens and re-Christened her Kharma. She had a few appearances where she attacked Divas, and then broke down and cried in the ring. It seems that Stevens had become pregnant, and had to step down from her contract due to health issues.
Kharma never returned to the WWE, though she did continue to wrestle in Japan. Her signing is considered terrible because of the timing, not because of a lack of ability or charisma on her part.
Kharma also had the distinction of being only the third woman to enter the men's Royal Rumble match.
