Backstage Update On WWE Recently Nixing Plans For Karrion Kross' Return

Karrion Kross is expected back on WWE TV in the near future.

Fightful Select is reporting that Kross was scheduled to work the November 3, 2023 episode of WWE Friday Night SmackDown, which was taped last Friday night, but as seen, he ended up not appearing on the show for unknown reasons.

The report states that Kross was scheduled to work a backstage segment on the show along with NXT Halloween Havoc co-hosts Shotzi and Scarlett. According to WWE sources, the segment would not have made sense for anyone involved and ended up being nixed early in the day.

It's worth noting this decision was not told to some, as it was still listed on some run sheets and was apparently still expected for the show as late as an hour before the live TV broadcast, but because it was scheduled for the second of the two shows, it was able to be sorted without issue.

There is no update regarding the creative for Karrion Kross in WWE at this time.
