10 Times WWE Took Away The ONE Thing That Got Wrestlers Over

10. Karrion Kross

Karrion Kross' Raw debut was a bit sh*t, wasn't it?

The NXT Champion looked like a lowly jobber when he lost to Jeff Hardy in approx two minutes, and his post-match grandstanding convinced nobody that WWE will use him correctly on Monday nights. This might've been the worst "main roster" debut for anybody "coming up" from NXT.

WWE need to realise that Karrion's presentation caught attention - Scarlett, the blonde bombshell that she is, was a huge part of that. Her poise, outfits and cries of, "fall and pray" dramatically boosted Kross' prospects when he burst onto the scene in 2020.

So much for that.

Raw's chiefs decided to remove Scarlett from Karrion's side and have him stroll out solo like a hangover from The Ascension days. How anybody could watch what Kross and Scarlett were doing on NXT and think, 'Yeah, he doesn't need her or any of that intensity', is truly baffling. He's the NXT Champ, for crying out loud!
