Major Karrion Kross WWE Rumour Debunked

Is WWE deliberately holding Karrion Kross back?

Despite a lack of action on the main roster, as 2025 has progressed, Karrion Kross has become increasingly popular with fans both in arenas and online.

This groundswell of support saw fans outraged as Kross missed out on a match at WrestleMania and failed to qualify for Money In The Bank. Unsurprisingly, several theories have emerged as to why Kross continues to be overlooked, despite his incredible support.

According to one report, Karrion Kross is reluctant to take flat back bumps, and it’s something several wrestlers have picked up on going back to his time in NXT. As a result, people believe that this is why he won’t ever reach the upper levels of WWE.

However, according to a follow-up report from Fightful Select, the reality regarding Kross is very different. The update cited several WWE producers who have worked with Kross, who claimed that a reluctance to take back bumps has never been an issue they’ve encountered.

Karrion Kross is set to return to action at Night of Champions against Sami Zayn. Many have suggested that an impressive performance could see Kross finally given more of a prominent role on television.

Ahead of the show, footage has emerged online of Kross and Scarlett being mobbed by fans in Saudi Arabia, again highlighting just how much the WWE Universe is behind them.
