In recent times, there has been a tug-of-war between WWE and AEW regarding the acquisition of talents. In an interview with Mirror Sport, Kross revealed that he had the chance to join the rival promotion.

“There was an idea that was proposed to me to come and do something there [at AEW],” Kross said. “But it was just so abundantly clear to me from dealing with fans face to face, that a WWE return was what people wanted to see. … It was always flattering. We were grateful we were receiving offers to do things but at the end of the day we knew we really should not tie ourselves down contractually somewhere else.” (via Wrestling Inc.)

WWE News: Karrion Kross reveals that fans expressed their disappointment over WWE not treating him well

The 37-year-old’s first stint in WWE lasted around a year. Though he did make it to the main roster during that time, things did not go as planned for Kross as he was released in November 2021.

In the same interview, the former two-time NXT Champion highlighted that fans wanted him to flourish on the main roster.

“We’d be in airports, we’d be in restaurants, in gyms, meet and greets, you name it anywhere, and we would have people come up to just pour their hearts out and express a lot of admiration and regret that things did not play out the way that they wanted them to,” Kross said. “Telling us how heartbroken they were that they never got to see the continuity of what we created in “NXT” come up to the main roster. So in the back of our minds every single time we got an offer that was a deciding factor.” (via Wrestling Inc.)

Kross is currently out of action as he was attacked by Drew McIntyre on a recent episode of SmackDown.
