It’s…Dakota Kai???

Bayley stands in her corner, still trying to tune out the obnoxious and degrading chants from the audience. She didn’t care who was out next, she would beat ANYBODY! However, to the fan’s shock, the next music to hit was familiar, especially to Bayley. It was the music of her own faction mate: Dakota Kai!

The Captain of Team Kick makes her way out, jogging with a small grin on her face. She rarely got singles opportunities like this, and surely she intended to make the most of it! She ignores the fans, a lot more successfully than Bayley, before making her way up onto the apron, posing and ducking inside.

‘Let’s Go Kota! Let’s Go Kota!’

The chants are surprising to both women in the ring, because Dakota had a history of backstabbing all her friends and also was a member of the group that injured Bianca, but they also preferred her over Bayley’s obnoxiousness, and wanted to see Bayley stripped down a lot more than they wanted to see the Kiwi.

“That’s right! New champ!” Dakota boasts, chuckling as she points out to the title and gestures for it as well, while Bayley looked almost nervous at the prospect of both having to fight and having to strip her own Damage CTRL teammate.

“C’mon, can’t we work something out?” Bayley questions after a second or two, shaking her head a little bit. “We don’t have to try and strip each other!”

“Nope, sorry Bay,” Dakota says, not sounding sincere as she sticks her tongue out. “Looks like everybody’s about to see a lot more of your curves.” She teases, giggling while Bayley steadily looks more and more nervous about what was about to happen. Soon, the bell rings, and this gauntlet match was underway.
