Dakota Kai says she hopes to make everyone proud when she faces Lyra Valkyria in the finals of the tournament for the WWE Women’s Intercontinental Championship on WWE RAW.
Kai and Valkyria have advanced to the finals of the tournament. The two stars will clash in the finals on the January 13 episode of WWE RAW.
In a post on Twitter, Dakota Kai shared her thoughts ahead of the match.
“I’ve been about WWE for 7 and a half years,” Kai wrote. “This has been my dream for as long as I can remember, way back when I was practicing DDTs on my lil bro in the lounge (don’t try this at home, lol). With each opportunity to win a singles championship over the years, I’ve given my all every time… even if I fell short, every time.
“I don’t want to say ‘failure isn’t an option’ because failure has been a part of my story and I’ve learned from it. I hope to make you all proud.”
Dakota Kai: Title Win Would Be Fairytale Ending
Kai also discussed her upcoming title match with The Ringer Wrestling Show.
“I am so pumped. I’m very overwhelmed,” Kai said. “I mean, it feels like it’s been a long time coming. I’ve been in the company for about seven years now, and while I’ve had opportunities, it’s almost been like close but no cigar.
“So for me, next week is a big opportunity to show what I can do, for starters, and then hopefully finish off that fairytale ending and have my hand raised high and have that belt around my waist. But yeah, I’m super excited. I’ve been training for it and I hope everyone is excited as I am.”
WrestleZone will have coverage of WWE RAW as it airs on Monday.
