Karrion Kross with Scarlett appeared on August 26 edition of NXT. He was seen wearing a suit with a sling on his shoulder. Karrion Kross suffered a separated shoulder in the hard-hitting battle that he fought with Keith Lee.

“The Herald of Doomsday” warned everybody. He believes the injury is an obstacle and that, “Doomsday is still coming to NXT because no matter when the time is told, everybody pays the toll, and God help the obstacles that will be in his path. Tick tock.”

He said, “There’s no way they’re going to let me defend the NXT Championship in this condition,” and relinquished the title. Scarlett then placed an hourglass next to the NXT Title on the mat and turned it upside down.

Karrion Kross was supposed to undergo an MRI on the past Monday but no news has been disclosed regarding this matter.
