During her reign, Maryse was subject to controversy as during a Raw house show Maryse tried out a new move on her opponent Gail Kim, in which after she had knocked her out with the French Kiss she proceeded to pin her by sitting on her face. This move was never tried in any live shows as it didn't abide with WWE's current PG product, however it is rumoured that this is one of the reasons Gail Kim left the WWE.[13]
