Karrion Kross Says He Could Be Back in NXT “Any Second”

Karrion Kross posted an update on his shoulder injury on Instagram, indicating that he’s close to a return and could be back “any second.”

I have deliberately neglected to answer any questions about my health from fans since August 22nd for a variety of reasons.
I see them everyday though.
And the check in’s have been sincerely appreciated.

However,
Today I will answer your question.

I feel absurdly stronger now than I did even before July. I have not squandered this time away.

I have always been addicted to challenges and avenues of improvement since I was a small kid.
And I see no point in returning if I’m not coming back even stronger than I was to begin with.

See you all again when the T I M E is right.

Which as you know… could be any second.

Or maybe when you least expect it.
