WWE Stars Could Become Free Agents Within Days

The futures of two WWE stars remain uncertain.

Throughout 2025, Karrion Kross’ popularity has grown higher than ever before, and despite limited in-ring appearances, he’s become one of the most beloved stars in the company today.

In more recent weeks, Kross has continued his rivalry with Sami Zayn and even defeated the star on the July 21 edition of Raw. After Kross picked up the win with the help of a lead pipe, it was announced that Sami Zayn is out of action indefinitely.

However, it was recently reported that Kross’ contract and that of his wife, Scarlett, will run out in August, and WWE hasn’t discussed extensions with the pair. Kross and Scarlett returned to WWE on August 5, 2022, meaning contracts were likely signed around that time.

Could Karrion Kross Leave WWE?

According to a new report from Fightful Select, Kross has claimed to several talents that “no new deal” has been signed and his current contract will expire in August.

Fightful added that the information has been consistent from several sources, and Kross claims that he and Scarlett haven’t been approached about a new contract. However, things might not be that simple.

The report noted that WWE is keeping the situation “very quiet” internally, and that Kross isn’t expected to “spill the beans” until he feels the time is right. WWE has also recently released new merchandise for the star, which usually indicates that a deal is done, or at least on the way.
