10 WWE Superstars Who Could Win Money In The Bank 2023
2. Karrion Kross
This one feels a little like a Hail Mary.
Look, they need to try something new with Kross, because right now, he is floundering. There are only so many times you can reheat an act that is based completely on 'intimidation' before that flame becomes completely doused. Just look at what happened to Bray Wyatt pre-Fiend.
If someone cannot back up their threats, then they become empty, and right now, Kross is beginning to feel a little lost in the shuffle. Did he win his feud with Drew McIntyre? If so, it doesn't feel like it, and McIntyre is the one who has still had prominent parts to play on the show, whilst Kross has been relegated to mid-card fluff.
His rivalry with Rey Mysterio looked promising, and as always, 'Doomsday' cut some sensational promos. But then he lost. When it mattered, he lost and then this past week, he lost a contendership match for the WWE Intercontinental Championship. That's a big drop off from threatening Roman Reigns when he returned last summer.
There is a main event act with Kross and his wife, Scarlett, and Triple H certainly seems capable of drawing it out of him. In NXT, he made Kross feel ten feet tall, and strapping him up with the briefcase would add some serious danger to an act that is starting to circle the drain. Also, it feeds perfectly into his whole 'Tick, Tock' shtick.
