Karrion Kross shares new nickname following WWE SmackDown
Karrion Kross has a profound sensibility for storytelling in WWE, and perhaps his best work yet since his NXT run was on The Road To WrestleMania XL.
Upon returning on SmackDown: New Year's Revolution on January 5, 2024, Kross was seen with a new faction dubbed The Final Testament. Their feud with Bobby Lashley officially commenced there and culminated on the grand stage with a loss to The All Mighty and his clan.
Be that as it may, the success of the angle might have brought some goodwill for The Doomwalker after a string of forgettable feuds and mostly losses on SmacKDown.
Taking to Instagram, he disclosed a new nickname, "Mr. and Mrs. Super Villain," for himself and his real-life wife Scarlett Bordeaux, who has always been at his side on-screen.
"Making new friends everywhere we go. #WWE ⏳ #MrAndMrsSuperVillain," wrote Karrion Kross.

Scarlett Bordeaux has also wrestled during her association with her husband. Last year, the power couple stepped into the ring on the blue brand to take on AJ Styles and 'Michin' Mia Yim in a mixed tag team match.
Karrion Kross believes the former WWE Champion is "ahead of his time"
The feud between Karrion Kross and AJ Styles was largely a television program, with the two men squaring off multiple times on the Friday night's show.
While making a rare appearance on the Keepin' It 100 podcast during the summer, Kross praised The Phenomenal One. He brought up the latter's early days in TNA, painting a picture of Styles as a visionary then, and even today.
"He's amazing to work with. He's the best. The thing that stands out to me is that he has a ring IQ of nobody that I've ever met. I've met people with high ring IQs ... the way he sees wrestling is, he was ahead of his time when he was coming up in TNA, and I think in a lot of aspects, he's still ahead of his time, even present day," said Kross.

The rivalry marked Kross' last, before bringing The Authors of Pain to WWE. If given the right story, perhaps The Herald of Doomsday could ultimately get to where Chief Content Officer Paul 'Triple H' Levesque had envisioned for him, as discussed between the pair, before his return in August 2022.
