Karrion Kross and his wife Scarlett are permitted to complete their indie bookings after re-signing with WWE this month.
Karrion Kross and his wife Scarlett shocked the WWE Universe when they made their surprising returns on August 5th. Drew McIntyre was having a confrontation with Roman Reigns ahead of their Clash at the Castle match when the couple struck.
Before Drew could enter the ring, Kross’s music played for the first time in almost a year. Kross then caught Drew by surprise and attacked him, repeatedly bashing his head against the ring steps.
He then made his intentions known when Scarlett placed an hourglass before Roman, signifying the end of his reign. They have yet to appear in the ring since then but have appeared in a series of vignettes.
It seems Karrion Kross and Scarlett took bookings before re-signing with WWE, but they have been allowed to complete them. WWE notable allowed the Hardy Boyz to do the same when they returned to the company in 2017.
They had won the Raw tag titles upon their return and were even seen with the belts at independent bookings. Karrion Kross’s last appearance before the August 5th SmackDown was at Ric Flair’s Last Match where he wrestled Harry Smith.
He reported on social media that he will fulfill his obligations, but will not be wrestling. The pair are only allowed to make dates so long as they don’t conflict with their new WWE schedule, though.
Karrion Kross’s Last WWE Run
Karrion Kross’s first run on the WWE main roster is now infamous for its poor presentation. From the start, it was bashed by fans as his first match saw him lose to Jeff Hardy quickly.
Fans hoped WWE would’ve learned from their error as Kross finished his run in NXT, but things only got worse. His entire run was without Scarlett, who has long been integral to his character.
They stript his unique entrance away and dressed him in suspenders and a helmet. The fans were never able to get behind the changes, and Kross would ultimately be released months later.
Now that he’s back it seems that Triple H is keen on rectifying the company’s past handling of Karrion Kross. He is already in a program with top stars Drew McIntyre and Roman Reigns and is rumored for a title match.
