Karrion Kross And Scarlett Return To WWE, Kross Attacks Drew McIntyre On 8/5 WWE SmackDown

Karrion Kross and Scarlett are back in WWE.

The duo returned to the company after he and Scarlett were released in November 2021, appearing on Friday's WWE SmackDown. Fightful Select previously reported that Kross was a name that WWE could bring back into the fold.

In his first moments back in WWE, Kross set his sights on Drew McIntyre, attacking him at ringside while Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns and The Usos (Jimmy & Jey Uso) watched from inside the ring.

But McIntyre wasn't Kross' only target. After taking out McIntyre, Kross and Scarlett sent a not-so-subtle message to Reigns, with Scarlett leaving an hourglass in the ring.

Prior to his release, Kross was a two-time NXT Champion and had a brief stint on Raw, debuting in July 2021 while still NXT Champion and losing to Jeff Hardy. Kross wrestled several matches on Raw and later dropped the NXT Championship to Samoa Joe. Since his release, Kross wrestled for a handful of promotions, including NJPW Strong and MLW.

Kross first signed with WWE back in 2020, later debuting in NXT months after his signing was announced.
