11 Ups & 4 Downs From Last Night's WWE NXT (Dec 4)
10. Cobra Kai
WWE
"Tegan Nox is not worth my time" was a blinding way to kick off a Dakota Kai promo that didn't sit around on the company's typical "I don't owe anybody an explanation" bullsh*t, especially because it's in keeping with how Kai's been booked post WarGames.
Far from running from those she wronged, Kai fought Candice LeRae last week ahead of a scrap with Rhea Ripley this week, foreshadowing her revenge scrap with Yim in seven days.
That she's confronting all of this whilst refusing to even discuss Nox is magnificent. An unexpected revenge attack from the fallen babyface awaits, and it's going to be amazing.
