Overview

• Kross, joined by Scarlett, appeared at GCW Homecoming on August 23 dressed as a druid and attacked Matt Cardona after helping Shotzi Blackheart score a win.
• In a backstage video, he smashed a violin and declared, “It’s clearly not a f—ing work,” saying he was done being sad and was returning to “f—ing people up.”
• Shotzi and Scarlett cut aggressive promos during the segment, with Shotzi issuing explicit threats toward Cardona and Scarlett hailing Shotzi as the “true f—ing indie God.”
• The appearance marks Kross’s first high-profile move on the independent scene since his WWE contract expired on August 10 and his roster page shifted to the alumni section.
• News coverage notes that fans had questioned whether his exit was a worked storyline, with this non-WWE booking presented as the strongest indication that he is a free agent.
