Possible New In-Ring Name For Dakota Kai Revealed

Dakota Kai's new in-ring name has possibly been revealed.

The former NXT talent (real name Cheree Crowley) filed to trademark 'King Kota' on May 9 for merchandise and entertainment purposes, which suggests she will use the phrase inside the squared circle.

'King Kota' was trademarked for the following reasons:

"C 025. US 022 039. G & S: Hats; Shirts; Sweatshirts; Bandanas; Hooded sweatshirts

"IC 041. US 100 101 107. G & S: Entertainment in the nature of wrestling contests; Entertainment services, namely, wrestling exhibits and performances by a professional wrestler and entertainer; Entertainment services, namely, live appearances by a professional wrestling and sports entertainment personality; Entertainment services, namely, personal appearances by a professional wrestling and sports entertainment personality; Entertainment services, namely, televised appearances by a professional wrestling and sports entertainment personality; Providing wrestling news and information via a global computer network; Providing online interviews featuring professional wrestling and sports entertainment personality in the field of professional wrestling and sports entertainment for entertainment purposes"

The Captain Of Team Kick won't be able to use Dakota Kai any longer as WWE own the trademark.

Kai was previously under contract with WWE but she was released by the company on April 29 after making it known she did not plan on re-signing with the organisation.

She ended her six-year run in WWE as a two-time NXT Women's Tag Team Champion.
