Okay, so, let me tell you about this whole WWE Damage CTRL thing. It all started back at SummerSlam in 2022. I was watching, right? And Bayley, she’d been out for like a year with an injury, she comes back. But she’s not alone. She’s with Dakota Kai and Iyo Sky. And boom, that’s the start of Damage CTRL.
I remember thinking, “What’s the deal with this name, Damage Control?” Later on, I heard Dakota Kai explain in some interview that it was about “control.” Sounded kinda cool, but also a bit cheesy if you ask me.
So, they started as a trio, Bayley, Dakota, and Iyo. They were running around, causing trouble, you know, typical wrestler stuff. They got into some big matches. I watched one at Crown Jewel, a Fatal Four-Way match for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship. They fought hard, but it didn’t go their way.
Then things got interesting. I read somewhere, some wrestling journalist, Bill Apter, was saying that WWE might replace Bayley as the leader with Dakota Kai. I was like, “Whoa, drama!” That would shake things up for sure.
Later, Asuka and Kairi Sane joined them. Suddenly, it’s not just three of them anymore. It’s a whole crew. They’ve had those WWE Women’s Tag Team titles a few times. I know Dakota and Iyo won them twice, and then Asuka and Kairi Sane got them too. They were on a roll, winning those belts and making a name for themselves.
I even saw some talk online about them competing on Raw, with Iyo and Kairi going for the tag team titles against Isla Dawn and Alba Fyre. I didn’t see the match itself, but I heard it was a big deal.
My Thoughts on Damage CTRL
- From a Trio to a Force: I watched them go from a trio to this bigger, stronger group. That’s some serious evolution.
- Title Changes: They kept winning and losing those tag team titles. It was a rollercoaster.
- Leadership Questions: That whole thing about who’s the leader, Bayley or Dakota, that kept me guessing.
- Expanding the Group: Bringing in Asuka and Kairi Sane? Smart move. They became even more of a force to be reckoned with.
So, that’s the story of Damage CTRL, at least as I’ve seen it. It’s been a wild ride, watching them form, fight, win, lose, and just stir things up in the WWE. They are sure to leave a mark in professional wrestling.
