Dakota Kai is officially marginalized with an injury and now we know more details about what is happening with the WWE star.
Pwinsider has confirmed that Kai suffered a brain shock during his recent fight in pairs in RAW, where he formed team with Io Sky against Zoey Stark and Shayna Baszler. It is believed that the injury occurred after a sharp landing after a flying kick, although that detail has not been completely verified.
Kai was remarkably absent after RAW bambalines this week, and with this new update, his status for Royal Rumble is in serious doubts. The WWE's brain shock protocol is strict and will not be discharged until all the necessary evaluations pass. That means it is not known when he will return to action.
This is an important blow, especially considering the expected presence of Damage Ctrl in the Royal Rumble combat. Now that Kai is forced to move away, this could alter any plan that WWE was going.
At this time, the future of Dakota Kai in the ring is in pause and the WWE does not want to run any risk. With a diagnosis of brain shock that keeps her on the sidelines, her hopes of participating in the Royal Rumble are fading rapidly. The way to recovery is unpredictable and the strict WWE protocol means that it will be out until you receive medical discharge. For fans who expect to see her at the ring this weekend, it seems rather a waiting game.
