Karrion Kross and Scarlett made an eye-catching debut on last night's episode of NXT.

Midway through the show, the lights went down as the seraphic silhouette of Scarlett (formerly Impact's Scarlett Bordeaux) appeared on the entrance ramp. She was soon joined by Karrion Kross (previously known as Killer Kross), who cut an impressive, imposing figure in front of her.

The pair proceeded to the ring in dramatic monochrome, as Scarlett mouthed the words to their gnarly black metal entrance theme. When colour returned to the picture, it was perfectly clear these two are going to be a big deal in NXT.

And indeed, so it was after Kross easily dispatched EVOLVE talent Leon Ruff in short order. It took a matter of minutes for the ex-Impact star to dismantle Ruff with a pair of nasty Doomsday Saito suplexes and his finisher, the Kross Jacket.

Kross - who made a single appearance with the company back in 2015 - signed permanently for WWE this February, joining real life partner Scarlett, who herself signed on the dotted line last October. Both worked in Impact prior to their arrival.

Benjamin was born in 1987, and is still not dead. He variously enjoys classical music, old-school adventure games (they're not dead), and walks on the beach (albeit short - asthma, you know). He's currently trying to compile a comprehensive history of video game music, yet denies accusations that he purposefully targets niche audiences. He's often wrong about these things.
