Rob Van Dam speaks highly of Karrion Kross and Scarlett.
Karrion Kross had a successful run in NXT, but his first run on the main roster ended with his release in November 2021. Kross returned to WWE in August 2022 alongside Scarlett, who was not part of his first run on WWE Raw. They remain featured on WWE television as members of the Final Testament.
Speaking on his 1 Of A Kind With RVD podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Rob Van Dam was asked to share his thoughts on Karrion Kross.
“He’s a really good dude, from first-hand experience. When I got to IMPACT I’m not sure which time, it would have been the second time, which was 2020 or something, but when I went to TNA/IMPACT, Karrion Kross was there just for a second. He was there for the first few shows, for a little while, and then I don’t know if he left to go to WWE or what, I can’t remember, but his girlfriend, Scarlett, and Katie are really good friends, so that was kind of my introduction to him. Definitely get two thumbs up from RVD, very cool people, I appreciate them, and the hustle too. When I see somebody get told by everyone, ‘Man, they’re gonna push you to the moon, look at you,’ and then I see that taken from them, and then I see them figure out what their next move is, then I see them get another shot or whatever, when I follow wrestlers’ paths like that, I tend to, not always, but I can earn a bit of respect for their hustle because I’ve been there, I’ve been through there. I’ve been through getting tested so many different ways, and so to see them get tested and keep on going and not let it destroy them, and part of that to protect yourself from getting destroyed is not to let your head blow up too big while they’re feeding you all this shit, telling you that you’re the next big thing. You gotta at least leave a little room for skepticism, I think, but that’s just for me," Rob Van Dam said.
Bobby Lashley recently said that Karrion Kross should be used more. Check out his comments here.
