Dakota Kai delivered an emotional message today on social media following her impressive victory last night on WWE RAW. The veteran is currently a member of Damage CTRL on the red brand.
The 36-year-old squared off against Pure Fusion Collective's Zoey Stark last night in the Women's Intercontinental Championship tournament. Kai picked up the victory to advance to the finals and took to Instagram today to send a message. She shared several photos from her victory last night, as well as a throwback of her as a child posing with a replica title. You can check out her message in the Instagram post below:
"Greetings bruzz and huzz.. it’s go time 🤟🏽 Scroll to last pic for manifestation 💀," she wrote.
A top AEW star just called one of his colleagues 'spoiled' and 'narcissistic' HERE.
Kairi Sane was supposed to compete in the Women's Intercontinental Championship tournament but was taken out in a backstage attack earlier this month on WWE RAW. IYO SKY replaced her stablemate in the tournament but was eliminated by Lyra Valkyria last night in the semifinals.

Wrestling veteran Vince Russo recently shared his thoughts on Dakota Kai making it to the finals of the Women's Intercontinental Championship tournament.
Speaking on the latest edition of Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW show, Russo commented on Kai potentially becoming the inaugural Women's Intercontinental Champion. Russo also commented on Lyra Valkyria possibly capturing the title and suggested that it wouldn't help her get over with the WWE Universe:
"Didn't we say a couple of weeks back they are going to put this belt on Dakota Kai? So, is it going to be Velcro? Oh my god, if they think Miss Velcro is going to be over because she's got the Intercontinental Title, good luck with that, bro!" [From 1:00:05 onwards]

Dakota Kai is a 2-time Women's Tag Team Champion alongside IYO SKY but has never won a singles title during her time as a WWE Superstar. It will be fascinating to see if she can defeat Lyra Valkyra to capture the Women's Intercontinental Championship in the weeks ahead.
