Karrion Kross’ Raw debut resulted in a loss.
NXT Champion Karrion Kross made his Monday Night Raw debut on 7/19 and he went one-on-one with Jeff Hardy. The conclusion of the match saw Hardy rolling Kross up for the three count to pick up the win.
Dating back to mid-June, Kross had been competing in dark matches prior to SmackDown and Raw. Last week, he successfully defended the NXT Championship against Johnny Gargano and after his win, Kross choked out the special guest referee for the title match, Samoa Joe.
