At least 'Sliced Bread #2' was aesthetically pleasing - Gail Kim's 'Eat da feet' sounded silly and corny to deliver a double whammy to TNA's best ever female wrestler.

The move looked awkward upon execution, with Gail Kim holding on to an opponent's arm, before dropping to the mat with her leg outstretched so that it would land on the opponent's jaw. The finisher was named 'Eat defeat' - to rhyme with and occasionally replace with 'Eat da feet' - it seemed to be a pro-wrestling writer's attempt at poor comedy, but a main event caliber talent like Kim shouldn't have been burdened with it.

Thankfully, Kim had other finishers that she could sink her teeth in to - like the imposing 'Christo ' submission and the 'Happy Ending'. Despite using 'Eat da feet' throughout her career, Kim did win a total of eight Women's titles in the WWE and TNA, becoming a TNA Hall of Famer in 2016.

In addition to Kim, AEW superstar Chuck Taylor and NXT superstar Mia Yim have used the same move - even though they renamed it effectively to 'Sole Food' and 'Seoul Food' respectively.
