5 Wrestling rumors we hope are true and 5 we hope aren't: 11-time World Champion to return at Royal Rumble, Brock Lesnar's Royal Rumble opponent

#3 Hope is true: WWE have serious interest in signing Killer Kross after his departure from Impact

Killer Kross

Killer Kross made a name for himself in Impact but recently left the company after previously expressing his dissatisfaction with his contract. With AEW now seen as pretty serious competition, WWE have reportedly wasted no time in approaching Killer Kross and look to be favorites to secure his signature.

WrestleVotes recently reported on the matter saying that WWE are set to lure Killer Kross with a big-money contract. Here's what WrestleVotes said:

“WWE’s interest level is significantly high in signing Killer Kross. Source said he should get a similar offer to that of which was extended to Hangman Page last year. No telling if Kross will sign, but WWE is definitely pursuing him, harder than they normally pursue other Fas.”

If WWE do sign Killer Kross, it's safe to say he would debut on NXT instead of RAW or SmackDown. With NXT now live on the USA network, someone of Kross' caliber will be a huge signing for the black and yellow brand.
