December 21, 2021. NXT. Dakota Kai sought to finally end Raquel Gonzalez and find serenity in the same type of match where their now extinct alliance had been formed. Kai came into their street fight a raging storm, attempting to strike Raquel with an equipment cart. They brawled backstage with Kai nearly being planted in a wall at one point. The action eventually made it to the ring. Kai dished out pain and took some, fighting her heart out as always. Dakota went for a table but was slow to put it into the ring for use, having a moment of conflict as she argued with her voices.

Kai's moment of conflict allowed Raquel to win a tug of war with her over the table. Dakota would fight back, delivering a well-deserved Coup-de-Kai off the apron to Raquel who had a trash can stuck over her head. But Raquel would take control moments later, powerbombing Kai onto the steel ring steps. Kai sensed this was a losing battle and defiantly slapped Raquel across the face in a moment that mirrored Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania 26. Gonzalez choked Kai down on the commentary table calling her a selfish bitch before tossing her into the ring.

Dakota tried one last bit of offense, fittingly a kick. But Raquel brushed it off and delivered a Chingona bomb onto a trash can to score the pinfall win. It was yet another huge loss for Dakota in terms of match wins and loses. But for her broken soul, perhaps something of a victory (even if she didn't see it as such at the time) since a fulfillment of vengeance by "ending" Raquel would have instead destroyed her. Her war against Raquel behind her, Our Captain could now refocus on getting some wins and perhaps earning a title match as she headed into the new year.

Speaking of Raquel. Moments after she won, she demanded a match for the NXT Women's Championship on the spot. That's quite entitled of Raquel. A bit selfish, isn't it?
