WWE’s Karrion Kross, leading the formidable Final Testament faction on Friday Night SmackDown, is exploring potential new recruits from within the WWE universe.
The imposing heel alliance, comprising Kross, Scarlett, WWE Hall of Famer Paul Ellering, and The Authors of Pain, stands as a dominant force on the blue brand.
Engaged in a heated rivalry with The Pride—comprising Bobby Lashley, B-Fab, and The Street Profits—Kross’s faction is poised for expansion.
My doors are always open to all.
Even Bobby.
And especially Mr. Dawkins.
Tune in tonight. @WWE #Smackdown https://t.co/9XmHhHw99W

Ahead of the latest SmackDown episode, a fan’s suggestion on social media caught Kross’s attention. Expressing interest in seeing AJ Styles and The Good Brothers join forces with Kross, the former NXT Champion responded with open arms, signaling a potential alliance with The O.C. members.
In a surprising turn of events, Kross extended his invitation even further, welcoming adversaries Bobby Lashley and Dawkins into the fold.
“My doors are always open to all. Even Bobby. And especially Mr. Dawkins. Tune in tonight. @WWE #SmackDown,”
he affirmed, teasing a possible shake-up in the WWE landscape.
Meanwhile, legendary wrestling journalist Bill Apter voiced his disappointment with Karrion Kross’s trajectory in WWE. Reflecting on Kross’s potential during his indie days, Apter lamented the missed opportunities and perceived mishandling of the talent by the company.
He advocated for a return to NXT, believing it could reignite Kross’s career and allow him to thrive in a more conducive environment.
“I’m so upset with what they did to him,”
Apter expressed during an episode of Sportskeeda Wrestling’s UnSKripted in September 2023. Recalling Kross’s indie stardom alongside Scarlett, Apter emphasized the disconnect between Kross’s potential and his current portrayal on the main roster.
Despite setbacks, Apter remained hopeful for a resurgence, suggesting a reunion with NXT could be the catalyst for Kross’s redemption in WWE.
