WWE is reportedly in talks with Kevin Kaser, aka Killer Kross.

Dave Meltzer reports in the latest edition of The Wrestling Observer Newsletter that Triple H did have a meeting scheduled with Killer Kross this week according to multiple sources.

While not signed yet, the betting line is that Kevin Kaser, 34 (Killer Kross) ends up here. There was thought to be interest in him across the board in wrestling due to his look. Multiple sources said Kaser and Paul Levesque were to have met this week.

Last month Wrestlevotes reported, WWE was pursuing Kross harder than they would normally seek other free agents.

Kross was released by IMPACT Wrestling in December 2018, following a dispute to be released from his contract.

Reports surfaced in last July indicating that Kross refused to blade during his I Quit Match against Eddie Edwards at IMPACT Wrestling’s Slammiversary. The company reportedly did not have 3rd party medical personal, as well as pre-match testing, which is one of the reasons Kross refused to partake in the angle. This was Kross’ last match with the promotion, despite still being under contract.

Issues between Kross and IMPACT Wrestling began in 2018 due to merchandising. IMPACT reportedly pressured AAA not to book Kross for a scheduled Lucha Invades NY event, which ultimately was cancelled.

Killer Kross’ girlfriend, Scarlett Bourdeaux did sign with WWE last year, and is allocated to the NXT brand. She has yet to make her television debut, other than a quick cameo during an outdoor shot.

Kross next major booking is a Major League Wrestling Fusion television taping on 2/1 in Philadelphia.
