Raquel Rodriguez on Possibly Facing Dakota Kai and Iyo Sky in Tournament Finals
– WWE Superstar Raquel Rodriguez appeared on today’s episode of WWE’s The Bump, and she discussed possibly facing Dakota Kai and Yo Sky in the finals of the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship Tournament. Raquel Gonzalez and tag team partner Aliyah advanced in the tournament last week after beating Xia Li and Shotzi. Rodriguez also previously held the titles with Dakota Kai, who is also competing in the tournament with Iyo Sky. Below are some highlights Fightful):
Raquel Rodriguez on if she’d want to face Dakota Kai and Iyo Sky in the tournament: “1000%, yes. I love both of those women. They are just aggressive and hungry, and I know first-hand how hungry Dakota Kai is for gold. So I know that these women’s tag titles really mean a lot to both of those women, and I love competition. If I can get into the ring with both of them, I know the competition is just gonna be there. So yes, I am looking forward to meeting them and getting in the ring.”
On teaming with Aliyah: “I think what it is us that we have experienced together. We’ve built our friendship up through the five years that we’ve known each other working at NXT together. So we already have that chemistry, but it’s definitely a duo that nobody’s really seen, and I don’t think anyone can really prepare for. Because when you prepare for one opponent, you’re like okay, what are their strengths and weaknesses? But Aliyah and I are so completely opposite but so on the same mind and wavelength as well that I just feel like no one’s gonna be able to prepare for us. We are just indestructible right now.”
Raquel Rodriguez and Aliyah will next face the winners of Zoey Stark and Nikkita Lyons vs. Natalya and Sonya Deville.
