Dakota Kai’s recent change in attitude may not win her a popularity contest in the NXT women’s locker room, but it did help her earn recognition as the black-and-gold brand’s Future Star of the Year.
The Captain of Team Kick has taken her game to a new level since betraying Tegan Nox and the rest of Team Ripley at TakeOver: WarGames.
“NXT Future Star — I’ve known that about myself this whole time,” Kai said. “Everyone that voted for me, you’re just late to the party. I make my own opportunities now.”
