If you were confused by Nikki Cross’ new gimmick, look no further than Cross’ husband NXT star Killian Dain for an explanation.
The former two-time WWE Women’s Tag-Team Champion debuted a new superhero-like gimmick during last night’s edition of Monday Night RAW.
The new look for Cross confused many fans but Cross’ real-life husband Killian Dain explained that she actually came up with the change herself and shared some of the concept art that was created for the new character.
She had an idea and saw it brought to life. Very excited to see whats next! Go go Nikki!!!! https://t.co/ZEUPSx3wCH

Bringing THIS to life has given me such joy. The roll I have been on @wwe gave me the boost I needed to unveil this to the ? , that everyone has that spark and they can try anything they want to, just listen to your heart.
