Bayley Approached Dakota Kai About Forming A Faction Years Ago

Bayley remains one of the most popular female wrestlers in all of WWE. She is a record-breaking Smackdown Women’s Champion and proficient at portraying a babyface and heel. She also approached Dakota Kai for the idea of a faction a few years ago.

The Role Model was away for well over a year after suffering an ACL injury while training at the WWE Performance Center. She finally returned during WWE SummerSlam, alongside Dakota Kai and Iyo Sky.

Since then, Bayley and her faction have been one of the mainstays of WWE television. While speaking to Stephanie Chase of Digital Spy, Dakota Kai revealed that Bayley first approached her with the idea of a faction in 2018.

“Bayley has been talking to me about this idea for years now,” Dakota said. “We were talking about when I was still in NXT, it was like 2018 when she first brought it up to me and then again at Evolution.We just kept like saying, ‘This needs to happen, we want this to happen so bad,’ and obviously the members changed but I was the constant. So I think it’s very poetic that it happened at SummerSlam and that her idea that we’ve been talking about for so long finally happened on such a big stage and with IYO as well, it was an emotional moment for all of us that it finally happened.”
