WWE Sign Killer Kross
The former Impact Wrestling bruiser has finally inked a WWE deal.
Killer Kross has finally signed with WWE.
This was confirmed by Ryan Satin on last night's episode of WWE Backstage, and has since been followed by a writeup on WWE.com.
"Kevin Kesar, better known as Killer Kross, is a towering competitor at 6-foot-3 and 250 pounds, and has a background in catch wrestling and sambo," says the brief profile. "Kesar has competed in India and Mexico, and was recognised as a rising star of the squared circle by the revered Cauliflower Alley Club in 2018."
Kross' signing ends months of speculation. Few will be surprised by this outcome, as recent times have seen multiple reports of WWE negotiations and meetings with Triple H. Now, finally, the 34-year-old can get going.
Best known for his recent work in Impact Wrestling, Kross is a bruising, intense performer whose size, look, and ferocity should make him a great fit for WWE. He's also joining his real-life partner Scarlett Bordeaux at the Performance Center.
WWE also confirmed the signing of indie standout Timothy Thatcher at the same time. This story had already been broken by Casey Michael earlier in the day, with the dot com writeup/Backstage report making it official.
