Explore the fallout from Dakota Kai’s unexpected return to WWE SmackDown in the wake of Damage CTRL’s attack on Bayley.
As Bayley sets her sights on challenging IYO SKY for the WWE Women’s Championship at WrestleMania 40, her alliances are put to the test.
However, Dakota Kai, who was conspicuously absent during last week’s assault, has made a surprising comeback, shaking up the status quo.
Kai made her presence felt on tonight’s episode of SmackDown, confronting Bayley and attempting to explain her absence.
She revealed that she missed last week’s show due to a medical evaluation, expressing her dismay over the attack on Bayley.
But when Damage CTRL ambushed the ring, raising doubts about Kai’s loyalties, she took action by wielding a steel chair against them.
Rather than turning against Bayley, Kai intervened to protect her former ally, thwarting Damage CTRL’s assault.
The confrontation left IYO SKY and the Kabuki Warriors on edge, highlighting the strain on their alliance and the consequences of Kai’s intervention.
While it appeared that Kai had chosen to stand by Bayley, the lingering tension between them leaves the door open for further twists and turns on the Road to WrestleMania 40.
