Any idea how long Karrion Kross will be out?
Given the fact WWE had Karrion Kross relinquish the title on this week’s NXT, we’re looking at an extended absence. If he were expected to be out a month or so WWE would have been able to book around it without having him drop the strap. It is a difficult break for Kross who is over like rover and has all the potential in the world. His issues being stuck in Impact Wrestling are well documented and now that he is finally out and finding success in WWE, an injury occurs. This business can be brutal.
Did you notice Randy Orton missed on his punts to Drew McIntye’s head at the begging of this week’s Raw?
Yes, there were so many issues with this week’s WWE Raw but Randy Orton did not just miss with the punts on Drew McIntyre, he did not even come close. And the cameras showed every bit of it. Matt Jackson, who has been going back and forth with Orton latest on social media, was sure to mention it on his Instagram. This week’s Raw was a mess and WWE could not catch a break. Every show features a notable botch or two but that one was fairly mind blowing. I am hoping for a reset with next week’s episode of WWE Raw.
With Austin Theory back, is it safe to assume WWE found nothing on him as well?
Austin Theory has been cleared following an internal WWE investigation and rejoins the company as a member of the NXT roster. I will not defend anyone for allegations like what were brought against him but had WWE found anything credible, he would have been terminated. For now, Theory is not on Raw but back on NXT. There would have been a day when that could have been considered a demotion but not now.
What’s the latest on Excalibur? He disappeared from AEW TV following the controversial promo at the PWG show and WWE never mentioned it.
Officials from both AEW and WWE were aware of the video and did not seek discipline just because it resurfaced. Excalibur asked to be removed from TV due to the controversy and it was never addressed by Kevin Owens or WWE. Excalibur is set to return on tonight’s episode of AEW Dynamite, as we’re working on more details that will be online shortly.
