It seems that the injury was worse than expected. Kai announced today via Twitter that she suffered a torn ACL and will be undergoing surgery which will put her out of action indefinitely:

WWE has posted an article on the injury, below is an excerpt:
The injury, suffered last month at an NXT Live Event in Green Bay, Wis., occurred when Kai planted her foot “awkwardly,” she wrote.
Despite the setback, which Kai said will “take me out for a bit,” the popular Captain of Team Kick remained upbeat about her return.
“Within my whole being, I know for sure I will be back stronger than ever,” Kai wrote. “I will hit the ground, running. That’s a promise.”
We will continue to monitor this story and provide updates as soon as they are available to us.
