Karrion Kross Returned From Injury Far Sooner Than Expected

Karrion Kross suffered a separated shoulder during his NXT Title win over Keith Lee. He suffered his injury in August, and then long wait for his return started. He was out of action about four months, but one doctor gave him a timeframe that was at least double that.

Kross tweeted out that one doctor told him his injury could take 8 to 12 months before he was ready for a return. His injury recovery was much faster than that, and his drive to become NXT Champion once again likely lit a huge fire under him every single day.

I remember receiving a prognosis about how long I was going to be out.

1 of them was 8 to 12 months.

I became very angry when I heard that.

I woke up everyday with that anger & made it work for me.

And to this day,

It’s still working.

I will become Champion once again.

Karrion Kross is on his way to get an NXT Title shot once again, but it might require a bit of waiting before they can get back around to him. He will be waiting to that time to come, because he’s already more than ready.
