Karrion Kross Set for In-Ring Return at WrestlePro After WWE Exit – Karrion Kross, now returning to his pre-WWE identity of Killer Kross, is gearing up for his first match since parting ways with WWE. He is set to compete at WrestlePro’s upcoming event, “Killer Smokeshow,” on September 21. The show will also feature Scarlett by his side, though his opponent has not yet been revealed.
Kross’ departure from WWE came shortly after SummerSlam 2025, where he faced Sami Zayn in what would be his final match for the company. Despite strong fan support, Kross was not booked to win, and his contract — along with Scarlett’s — expired without renewal. This marked the end of their latest WWE run, paving the way for new opportunities outside the company.
The “Killer Smokeshow” branding reflects more than just the WrestlePro event. Kross and Scarlett are launching a convention tour under the same name, running from August through November. The tour will include fan meet-and-greets, appearances, and additional independent wrestling bookings.
The shift back to the “Killer Kross” persona signals a return to the darker, more intense style that first earned him recognition before joining WWE. While fans await the announcement of his first opponent, the event already carries intrigue given its timing and Kross’ renewed freedom to shape his career direction.
