Ember Moon Loses To Dakota Kai
The tank didn’t keep rolling for Shotzi’s now former partner in Ember Moon, though. In the opening match of this week’s NXT, Moon faced Dakota Kai in singles action, but her effort was eclipsed by Kai, who won the match via pinfall After the bout, Moon and Kai became non-factors when Xia Li stormed out to indicate her interest in Raquel Gonzalez’s NXT Women’s Championship.
