Karrion Kross, also known as Killer Kross, has returned to WWE, so The Wrestling Showcase now has an opening in its eight-man bracket.
On the August 5 episode of WWE SmackDown, Kross returned to the company and attacked Drew McIntyre. Previously, he had been taking bookings as a free agent, so he had been scheduled to compete in The Wrestling Showcase. Tony Nese had been confirmed as his opponent in the first round.
The day after Kross returned to WWE, The Wrestling Showcase announced that he has been removed from the tournament. In a tweet, the company thanked Kross and Scarlett and wished them well. The announcement also stated that there is now an open spot in the bracket, so fans should stay tuned to The Wrestling Showcase’s social media for more information.
