The NXT Universe watched in horror Wednesday night as Shayna Baszler sadistically brutalized Dakota Kai’s left arm, inflicting so much damage to the limb that the referee had no choice but to stop the match and award the contest to the debuting Queen of Spades.
Though the extent of Kai’s injury is not yet known — she will have to undergo x-rays, she informed Christy St. Cloud in a post-match interview — The Captain of Team Kick took a moment to thank her fans for their well-wishes on Twitter later in the night.
She also used the tweet to send a crystal-clear message to the bully of the NXT Women’s division:
While it remains to be seen if or when that return match could go down, this much is obvious one week into Baszler’s NXT career: With The Queen of Spades around, no one is safe.
