5 NXT Superstars Karrion Kross could target next

#3 Finn Balor

Balor is one of NXT's biggest stars

Damian Priest wanted to Live Forever on NXT, and to make that happen he made the mistake of going after The Prince of NXT, Finn Balor. Priest paid the price at NXT TakeOver: In Your House, as Balor put down The Archer of Infamy with a Coup de Grace and reminded fans why he’s a former Universal Champion.

While Priest may have made the wrong decision to go after Balor, Karrion Kross could benefit from stepping up to The Prince of NXT and giving him a run for his money.

The Prince of NXT has already taken on some new Superstars

Kross is one of the most lethal forces in NXT today, and even a villain like Balor will think twice before crossing Kross’s path. That could give The Herald of Doomsday a valid reason to go after Balor and show him that he is not the only Prince in WWE.

Kross could go after Balor sooner rather than later to prove that he is here to stay, and since Balor is without any opponents at the moment, give him a reason to bring out the Demon gimmick once again.

NXT could benefit from turning Balor face again as his NXT United Kingdom Championship chase has been put on hold, and we could see many heels such as Kross benefit from Balor’s face turn on the Black & Gold brand.
