Ever since leaving WWE, fans have been attempting to predict Killer Kross’ next move within the industry, and while many originally believed his exit was all an element of a dramatic work, it looks as if he’s slowly reestablishing himself on the independent circuit. Interestingly, Kross had an interaction with AEW star Darby Allin at Comic Con, leading some fans to push for him to finally have an AEW debut as a substitute.
During an appearance on “The Ariel Helwani Show,” Tony Khan was asked about whether this might turn out to be a reality, to which the AEW President revealed he hasn’t spoken to Kross in years. “I like Killer Kross. It will be interesting to sooner or later talk over with him again; it has been a protracted time since I’ve talked to Killer Kross,” he said.
Khan then addressed the interaction with Allin at Comic Con, noting that it wasn’t planned and Allin was there simply to advertise AEW Full Gear and commented on their clash on the indies. “That night, I had numerous things occurring, and I actually desired to go see his match but Darby needed to be hustled out,” he added. “I didn’t get to see [Kross] that night, and that probably would’ve been an incredible likelihood to get reconnected.”
The AEW President then commented on WWE parting ways with Kross, describing the situation as interesting. “I believe he could be very talented, and Darby said he had an incredible experience with him, so it could definitely be value reconnecting,” Khan noted.
