Karrion Kross promotes major project ahead of RAW; former WWE star sends threatening response
Karrion Kross promoted his new short film ahead of tonight's episode of RAW, and a former WWE star responded with a threatening message. Kross is currently the leader of The Final Testament on the red brand.
Ahead of tonight's edition of the red brand in Philadelphia, Kross took to social media to promote the short horror film The Sheik Massacre. The film is available on YouTube and also features former WWE Superstar John Morrison as they combat an Iron Sheik doll that was struck by lightning.
The Doom Walker promoted the film on his Instagram, noting that it was Halloween season. The former NXT star embraced a bald look for this film.
Matt Cardona (formerly known as Zack Ryder) hilariously reacted to Kross' message on Instagram. Cardona claimed that The Final Testament leader deserved to die in the film simply because he willingly shaved his head for the role.
"You deserved to die in this movie after you shaved your head intentionally," Cardona wrote.
Cardona's time in the company came to an end in 2020. However, the former Intercontinental Champion has made a name for himself on the independent wrestling scene since he departed from the promotion. The veteran is married to SmackDown star Chelsea Green in real life.
Former WWE writer claims Karrion Kross is being wasted on RAW
Wrestling legend Vince Russo recently claimed that Karrion Kross was not being utilized properly on RAW.
Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW show, Russo complained about Kross' opportunities on WWE television. The veteran stated that the company was not giving the former NXT Champion enough material to work with, and he also praised his wife, Scarlett Boudreaux.
"They're not giving him [Karrion Kross] good material... Scarlett, I swear to God bro, is probably the most attractive female on the entire roster. Totally, totally, totally wasted. Totally wasted." [From 42:31 onwards]
You can check out Russo's comments in the video below:
Karrion Kross is the leader of The Final Testament alongside The Authors of Pain (Akam and Rezar) on RAW. The Authors of Pain will be squaring off against The New Day's Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston tonight in the tournament to determine The Judgment Day's next challengers for the World Tag Team Championship. It will be interesting to see if Kross gets involved in the tag team match later tonight on RAW.
