WWE Crown Jewel 2022: 10 Nightmares That Could Come True

Drew McIntyre is the kind of pro wrestler who goes above and beyond to elevate his opponents regardless of their status on the card, and that's something he deserves a huge amount of credit for. However, even the generous Scot would find it hard to help Karrion Kross along if he was written to revenge smash the baddie inside a cage on Saturday night.

Going 50/50 on payback wins is a WWE trope everyone is too familiar with.

Kross picked up a momentum-boosting victory back at Extreme Rules, and that might lead the company's power players to decree that they've done enough for him. They really haven't. Karrion isn't quite viewed as a sustainable headliner just yet - he needs a few more wins and screen time to get there.

McIntyre winning would only lead to a tiebreaker (they'd be 1-1) anyway, and it'd be difficult to see anything other than a babyface pop-gleaning Claymore Kick to end the series. No, Kross must be allowed the chance to succeed.
