NXT star Dakota Kai posted the following on Twitter, confirming she tore her ACL during a December NXT live event in Green Bay:
I had always felt invincible. Working through minor injuries was something I never thought twice about because [I] love what I get to do.
On December 7th in Green Bay during the last NXT Road Loop of 2018, I planted my foot awkwardly after a kick and I tore my ACL. I put off posting this because I wanted to focus on being home for the holidays and to be honest, I dreaded having to even mention this as I didn’t want to let any of you down. That, over everything, was and is the most heartbreaking feeling in the world.
Unfortunately, this will take me out for a bit. I’m surrounded by amazing people, doctors, trainers and you. It helps more than I can explain, especially being so far away from my family. The amount of positivity & support I have recieved already has been so overwhelming. It’s going to be a tough ride, mentally and physically. I know that. The last thing I want is any sympathy…but hear me when I say this; Within my whole being, I know for sure I will be back stronger than ever. I will hit the ground, running. That’s a promise.
“Above all, don’t fear the difficult moments. The best comes from them.”
Dakota Kai was teaming with Candice LeRae and Kairi Sane against Shayna Baszler, Jessamyn Duke and Marina Shafir; LeRae and Sane ultimately picked up the win without her in the match.
