A recent report has shared the latest update regarding the contract situation of WWE duo Karrion Kross and Scarlett. According to Fightur, Kross has been informing people that their current WWE agreements are set to expire in August, and new contracts have yet to be finalized.
The report mentions that several wrestling talents who inquired with Kross about his contract were told the deals are ending next month. Additionally, as of last week, Kross stated that neither he nor Scarlett had been approached by WWE for contract renewals.
Despite Kross’s claim that his contract has expired, WWE’s actions suggest otherwise. Internally, things remain very quiet, but Kross continues to feature prominently in newly released merchandise and regularly appears on Friday Night Smackdown and premium live events. Such involvement typically signals that a talent has either re-signed or is expected to do so. The report also affirmed that WWE still has creative plans for both Kross and Scarlett on their programming.
The ambiguity around Kross’s contract unfolds while he and Scarlett play a significant role in a major storyline on Friday Night Smackdown. They are set to engage in psychological tactics against the WWE Champion Cody Rhodes and his SummerSlam challenger John Cena. The duo participated in the chaotic contract signing last week, and their future presence in main event storylines remains a crucial plot element.
Fan Take: This contract uncertainty is a big deal for WWE fans because Karrion Kross and Scarlett bring a fresh, intense dynamic to Smackdown. Their continued presence—or sudden absence—could significantly impact the storyline direction and excitement heading into SummerSlam.
