WWE Royal Rumble 2020: 5 Booking mistakes that were made

#3. Tegan Nox and Dakota Kai

Why didn't they continue their story in the ring?

There were a number of surprise entrants in last night's Women's Royal Rumble match, but interestingly both Dakota Kai and Tegan Nox were chosen as entrants for this year's match. The two women are currently part of a bitter rivalry on NXT after Kai turned on her long-time friend back at War Games.

Kai entered the Rumble first at number 15 and lasted just a minute and 32 seconds before she was eliminated by Chelsea Green. Tegan Nox then entered the Rumble match at number 28 and lasted just over three minutes before she was then eliminated by Shayna Baszler.

WWE missed a golden opportunity here to have Nox come in and cost Kai the victory as a means for revenge. Other option would have been to send Kai back out when Nox was in the ring and cost her the chance to go to WrestleMania, which would have added to the issues between the two women.

Instead, the company completely overlooked the feud and let Kai and Nox wrestle in the Rumble independent of one another.
