Dakota Kai turned her back on her best friend this week on WWE NXT.
When Raquel Gonzalez, the reigning NXT Women’s Champion, discussed her dominance and bragged about her successful reign, Kai told the champion that she’d keep the title as long as they were together. Once Gonzalez turned her back, Kai attacked Gonzalez and left her lying in the ring.
"As long as I have your back, you will always be champion." – @DakotaKai_WWE to @RaquelWWE #WWENXT
