On Dakota Kai taking on Bianca Belair:

While reflecting on how close she was to becoming NXT Women’s Champion in an interview last week, Dakota Kai stated that she won’t waste the next opportunity that comes her way. However, an eavesdropping Bianca Belair quickly took exception to Kai’s words and butted in. Belair, who had defeated Aliyah moments prior, felt slighted by the attention being paid to The Captain of Team Kick. The EST of NXT suggested that Kai should now get to “the back of the line” because it is Belair’s time to shine. Dakota refused to be intimidated, however, and boldly challenged the dominant Superstar to a match. Belair gleefully accepted, noting that she liked the idea and adding that Kai will regret it.

On War Raiders battling The Mighty:

After The Mighty named The War Raiders as one of the NXT teams they could topple, Hanson & Rowe responded emphatically last week, first by trouncing the overmatched Ricky Martinez & Justin Storm, and then by letting Nick Miller & Shane Thorne know that they would show them what “mighty” really looks like. From there, The War Raiders laid out Storm with a pulverizing pop-up powerslam, making it very clear that a war was now heading Thorne & Miller’s way.

Will The Mighty back up their words against the imposing War Raiders? Or will Hanson & Rowe continue their path of destruction? Find out on the award-winning WWE Network when NXT airs tonight at 8/7 C!
