Karrion Kross Reveals What Really Bothered Him Following WWE Exit

Karrion Kross has openly admitted that Triple H’s failure to reach out to him after his WWE departure genuinely bothered him. Speaking with Ariel Helwani, the former WWE star revealed he received no communication from the creative head despite their long history together. Kross was careful not to throw shade at Triple H and even suggested that corporate policies may have prevented any contact. Still, he was honest about how much the lack of outreach affected him personally. He and his wife, Scarlett, left WWE in August 2025 after their contracts expired.

Maybe he’s told not to contact the talent afterward. Maybe. But it did bother me, I will tell you it bothered me very, very much.” – Karrion Kross

Since departing WWE, Karrion Kross has flourished on the independent scene as Killer Kross alongside Scarlett. He made an immediate impact with notable appearances for GCW and DEFY before returning to MLW in November 2025, where he defeated Matt Riddle in his debut match. On January 29, 2026, Kross won the Battle Riot match to capture the MLW World Heavyweight Championship, his first major world title outside of NXT. Now 39, Kross is enjoying creative freedom while balancing wrestling with acting projects and a paranormal show.
