10 Wrestlers Triple H Will Make Champion
9. IYO SKY & Dakota Kai
After Sasha Banks and Naomi walked from WWE, the SmackDown commentary team announced that a tournament was in the works for the now vacant WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships and the collective opinion of fans was one of either “no it isn’t” or “what tag teams?”.
We already know and have proof that Triple H cares about women’s wrestling, so that tournament finally coming around now makes a lot of sense.
It says a lot about Triple H’s faith in his former NXT men and women when you take a look at those that he’s brought back after their unceremonious release. Dakota Kai felt like a faithful part of Triple H’s former developmental booking but it was clear that there was a ceiling that she wasn’t making it through. Vince and company’s main roster style simply seemed disinterested in her.
To be brought back in after being let go only a few months ago is a very good sign for Kai’s future and, well, IYO SKY was given the keys to the NXT women’s division for a long time so that’s a no-brainer.
The pair have been placed in this tournament and it’s a near-certainty that they will steamroll their way to gold. If they don’t manage it right away, the women have a bright future ahead of them with Papa H leading the charge.
