Karrion Kross Reacts To Drew McIntyre Saying The NXT Star Has His "Full Attention"
Liam Parker
Drew McIntyre recently revealed Karrion Kross and Scarlett have his attention, and Kross is well aware of the WWE Champion's comments.
Many fans consider NXT to be the best thing about WWE, and right now, Karrion Kross and Scarlett's elaborate entrance is one of the best things about NXT. It's a shame that the entrance hasn't been able to take place in front of fans. However, the thought of it taking place at a TakeOver in front of 20,000 rabid fans is enough to see us through to the end of this pandemic.
As for what comes after the impressive entrance, Kross has been dominant in the ring thus far. His sole TakeOver appearance was a win over Tomasso Ciampa that was so quick it could almost be considered a squash match. Kross has also picked up wins against Bronson Reed and Dominik Dijakovic since then.

He and Scarlett have made it abundantly clear that their sights are already set on the NXT Title. Scarlett presented former champion Adam Cole with a sand timer when he was still in possession of the title and has given new champion Keith Lee a smashed sand timer since then. In addition to that, Kross himself tossed a virtual sand timer in the direction of WWE Champion, Drew McIntyre.
During a Q&A on Twitter, McIntyre was asked who in NXT he is looking forward to facing most. The Scottish Psychopath replied saying Scarlett and Kross have his "full attention". NXT posted McIntyre's response on its Instagram account, bringing it to the attention of the black and gold brand's undefeated star. Kross replied with nothing more than a sand timer emoji.
Kross might be good, but he should learn from the mistakes of others when it comes to looking past strong opponents before he has even faced them. If Kross does face Lee at TakeOver XXX, which appears to be the direction in which the angle is headed, it will be Kross's toughest challenge yet. After that, he can shift his attention to McIntyre. If he still wants to by then as Randy Orton may be WWE Champion after SummerSlam weekend.
