This top WWE star has finally tasted victory.
A popular face on World Wrestling Entertainment television and extremely over with the crowd, Karrion Kross finally earned his revenge tonight. Despite his run as a heel, former NXT Champion Kross recently put himself extremely over with the fans and earned a massive fan following.
Involved in a heated feud against Sami Zayn, Kross faced Zayn tonight on the July 21st episode of Raw, in an attempt to avenge his Night of Champions loss against the former Intercontinental Champion.
Following a closely contested fight, Kross was able to keep Zayn down after an interference from Scarlett Bordeaux, who provided Kross with a pipe. Using the pipe and capitalising on the distraction caused by Bordeaux, fans witnessed Karrion Kross hit Zayn with the metal pipe, before keeping him down and snatching away the victory.
Tonight’s bout also saw Kross bust himself open and sport a crimson mask. Despite the heavy blood loss, the former champion maintained resilience and earned his victory before sharing a romantic kiss with his partner inside the ring.
Despite his victories on his untelevised appearances on Main Event, tonight marked Karrion Kross’ first Raw victory in 226 days since his last tag-team win on 9th December, 2024, when he, alongside The Final Testament, defeated The Wyatt Sicks.
