Karrion Kross and Scarlett pulled off a major surprise this past weekend.
The former WWE superstars made a shocking appearance at Game Changer Wrestling‘s Homecoming event. This wasn’t just a random appearance as the duo helped Shotzi pick up the win against Matt Cardona.
GCW Homecoming kicked off with Shotzi and Cardona squaring off for the Garage Beer World Championship. The match featured GCW’s signature hardcore style with both stars using light tubes, barbed wires, and beer cans to full effect.
At one point during the match, Cardona got his forehead lacerated with a pizza cutter from Shotzi, courtesy of Nick Gage. Despite the brutal assault, Cardona somehow managed to hit Shotzi with the Radio Silence before calling for outside help. This is when two hooded individuals came out to the ring. One of them hit Cardona with a low blow before revealing themselves as Karrion Kross and Scarlett.
The crowd popped big time for the pair. Kross proceeded to lift a stunned Cardona and slammed him straight through a door in the corner, allowing Shotzi to capitalize on the attack with a top rope senton for the win.
The feud between Karrion Kross and Matt Cardona seems far from over. They have been announced for a match at House of Glory’s “With Glory Comes Pride” event on October 10th in Queens, New York. The event will mark Kross’ HOG debut.
For those unaware, Kross and Scarlett entered free agency after their WWE contracts expired earlier this month. His final WWE match came against Sami Zayn at SummerSlam Saturday. Fans can check WrestleZone’s full coverage of night one here.
