Karrion Kross has been part of the WWE family for a few years but it hasnt been an easy road for him to make his mark there. While he properly made his debut in WWE back in 2020, he worked as an extra in WWE, years before that and Kross has now revealed Jon Moxleys involvement in his WWE return.
While speaking to Notsam Wrestling, Karrion Kross shared how Jon Moxley helped him return to WWE. When Moxley left WWE in 2019, someone made a video for him with his name arranged into an hourglass. Some fans thought it looked similar to Krosss style, and some had negative things to say.
Instead of focusing on the negative, Kross decided to turn it into something positive. He made his own video where he acted like he was searching for Moxley in Las Vegas. It was like a movie trailer, saying he wanted to work with Moxley, who was now available to work outside WWE.
Moxley saw the video and responded, saying he was open to working with Kross. This led to Kross co-running a show called Natural Born Killers, which was focused on Bloodsport-style wrestling. He was running these small Bloodsport shows in Las Vegas, and they were streamed on the Fight app.
The experience brought Krosss MMA training back into play, something he had once thought wasnt for him but turned out to be helpful. During the event, Kross wrestled Dan Severn, and after the show, Moxley made a surprise appearance. He told Kross he should call Triple H because working with WWE could help him make good money and go anywhere he wanted. Kross was unsure at first, but Moxley insisted and gave him Triple Hs phone number.
Kross texted Triple H and when Triple H called back, he was surprised, asking, Is this really Karrion Kross? They talked and a few months later, Kross was in NXT. He felt like everything was falling into place, and he realized that sometimes one needs to pay attention to signs and opportunities because timing is everything.
Karrion Kross remains the leader of The Final Testament on WWE television but he is more than glad he ultimately listened to Jon Moxley, as Kross was booked like an unstoppable force of nature during his first run in NXT.
