Kross' contract ended five days later on Aug. 10, just five days after WWE initially reached out to him to offer a new deal to the veteran wrestler. Once in the WWE, Kross had a brief, poorly received run with the brand that ended in a first release from the promotion.

The curious case of Karrion Kross and his apparent departure from WWE has dominated the conversation among wrestling fans for the past week.

For numerous years, Karrion Kross and Scarlett were part of the WWE, trying to establish themselves. Both had two runs with WWE, so unfortunate that Karrion Kross didn’t rise to the occasion as fans hoped he would.
