WWE are potentially set to end the Damage CTRL stable, given the recent release of one one of its members in Dakota Kai.

The group now consists of Iyo Sky, Kairi Sane and Asuka, although the latter hasn't wrestled since Backlash 2024.

Bryan Alvarez spoke about the situation on Wrestling Observer Live, explaining:

"I don't know what the story is there other than - and I don't know if this is official - but I was kind of told unofficially that Damage CTRL's done. The group is done. And that probably means that maybe Asuka and Kairi might come back as a tag team, and Iyo's obviously a big singles star, and maybe they just figured that Dakota, she's not gonna be at the level of an Iyo, doesn't have a partner, we don't do a six-woman division, so she got cut. But that one is surprising."

Damage CTRL debuted as a trio at SummerSlam 2022, initially consisting of Sky and Kai led by Bayley. Asuka and Kairi were latter additions to the group, joining in late 2023, and Bayley was later kicked out of the group, leading to a title feud with Iyo at WrestleMania XL.
