Wrestling in the United States is difficult if you come from other parts of the world. That has only been made worse by the pandemic as those from other countries have been unable to return home. Such is the case for NXT star Dakota Kai.
Kai recently spoke with Sports Illustrated where she was asked what drives her current attitude. She responded that it was the sacrifices that she has made leaving home and missing her family that motivates her approach. Here is the quote:
“I miss home. I miss my family, That’s a sacrifice I made. It was hard to move my life here, The sacrifice I made equates to the way I work in the ring. I sacrificed everything to be here. That’s why I have a fearless approach. I’m the first-ever Kiwi woman signed to WWE, so I’m blazing a new trail, And there is still so much to accomplish.”
Dakota Kai and Raquel Gonzalez won the first-ever Women’s Dusty Rhodes Classic tournament, defeating Ember Moon and Shotzi Blackheart at NXT TakeOver: Vengeance Day. They will now face Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship on NXT.
