Karrion Kross Reflects On Challenging Batista, Says He Would Be ‘Honored To Open That Door’
Karrion Kross reflects on his challenge to Batista.
Karrion Kross teases his interest in facing Batista.
At Bloodsport 2 in 2019, Kross (then known as Killer Kross) called out former WWE Champion Batista and challenged him to face him at a Bloodsport show. In his message, he said, “Give us what we want,” but Batista never answered the challenge.
Kross took to Twitter/X to respond to a fan who posted a clip of the call-out. He described how he had heard Batista was in the building shooting for a movie, and as a fan of “The Animal”, he thought the powerhouse would thrive in Bloodsport. Kross noted that he was bummed about Batista’s retirement and hoped he would return. He also stated that he would be “honored to open that door.”
