The Captain of Team Kick turned heel in 2019, which many believe was just what she needed to do.

The feisty New Zealand native impressed all comers with her appearance in the Mae Young Classic and has continued to do so on the NXT roster.

With her recent, shocking heel turn at Wargames, Dakota Kai not only generated new interest in her character, but she also provided a much needed evil female role on the stacked NXT roster. How was her 2019?

Win-Loss Record: With 15 wins and 14 losses, Kai just earns an above-average grade. Grade: B-

Championships: Kai won no titles in 2019 but did manage to challenge for both the NXT and World Tag Team titles. Grade: D

Cross Media Appeal: Kai is an international wrestling star but unlikely to be known outside the industry. Grade: D

Industry Influence: Dakota Kai's energetic striking style has taken hold in the USA and beyond. Grade: B

Overall Grade: C+ Dakota Kai continued her climb up the NXT roster in 2019 and finished better than she started.
