March 1, 2024. SmackDown. The Day of Judgment had come. Would King Kota offer Bayley her hand to tag, declaring Bayley worthy of another chance? Or drop down, declaring Bayley guilty for her many wrongs toward Damage CTRL? The Judgement of The King toward the despicable Bayley: GUILTY on all accounts. Bayley had been used for months by Damage CTRL just like she once did to Dakota and IYO. The first part of her sentence was finished so Bayley received the next: Kai slapping her across the face followed by SKY bullet training her to the canvas.
Bayley cried a river of tears all the way backstage instead of taking her deserved comeuppance with dignity. But what else would you expect from a selfish snake? She couldn't even tone it down so Damage CTRL could have their rightful spotlight, trying to get everyone's attention on her by doing her CryBayley act. Nevertheless, the true brains and leader of Damage CTRL, The Mastermind of The Liberation Dakota Kai stood proud alongside her true sisters WWE Women's Champion IYO SKY and WWE Women's Tag Team Champions Asuka & Kairi Sane.
The Ladies Magnificent would not waste time reminding the world it's Damage CTRL who run the Women's Division across all three brands. First, they went to Monday Night RAW on March 4, 2024 to generously grant Shayna Baszler & Zoey Stark their requested shot at the WWE Women's Tag Team Titles. The next day, Asuka & Sane successfully defended the titles against Lyra Valkyria & Tatum Paxley on NXT. Lastly, on The SmackDown LowDown they kindly warned the recently returned Naomi that talking shit about them would have fatal consequences.
Bayley getting what she deserved was the highlight of this all. But there was another, often overlooked and underappreciated. When Dakota stood across the ring from Shayna to offer Zoey and her a tag team championship match, Stark stepped forward with Baszler to bully Kai like Shayna and her Queen’s Army used to do in NXT. This time, Kai brought The King’s Army, her Damage CTRL sisters who stepped forward to stand beside her. A masterful power play by King Kota.
