Karrion Kross might be counting down the days to his WWE exitand fans are starting to pick up on the signs.
The former NXT Champion is reportedly in the final stretch of his WWE contract, and while theres no confirmed expiration date, sources indicated that the deal is expected to run out this summer. Whats still unclear is whether Kross is negotiating a new deal or if WWE is planning to lock him in before he walks.
But now, his recent social media activity is turning heads. On April 1, Ringside News noticed a subtlebut tellingchange on X/Twitter. Kross is now going by his real name, Kevin Robert Kesar, instead of his WWE ring name. That kind of move typically signals a wrestler leaving the company or preparing for life outside WWE.
That said, Kross hasnt scrubbed WWE completely. The company is still mentioned in his bio, which suggests hes technically still under contract. But the timing of this switchright after the contract news surfacedhas fans speculating.
Kross hasnt wrestled on television since the December 9, 2024, episode of RAW. And while his character work has reportedly impressed WWE officials behind the scenes, hes remained absent from the ring for months, adding more fuel to the rumors.
The 39-year-old previously left WWE in November 2021 before being brought back under Triple Hs creative leadership in 2022. Since returning, hes remained committed to his dark, brooding persona alongside Scarlett. WWE sources have described the company as ecstatic with how Kross has handled his role, especially his effort to build buzz through social media and storytelling.
Still, the lack of recent in-ring action combined with this latest profile change has fans wondering whether hes already preparing to say goodbye again.
