Karrion Kross is continuing to close in on Drew McIntyre, so we’ll see what’s the
latest with that storyline.
We’ll also see what’s going with Maxxine Dupree, Edge’s retirement news, and much
more
Let’s start things off with the Karrion Kross, Scarlett, and Drew McIntyre story
So Drew McIntyre is obviously in the middle of the biggest storyline and feud going on
right now in WWE with Roman Reigns
But similar to how Roman’s story has been in the past, it looks like Drew McIntyre actually
has two storylines and feuds going on at the same time, sort of overlapping each other
Drew McIntyre is gearing up for Roman Reigns at Clash At The Castle, but Karrion Kross
has targeted Drew McIntyre and continues to close in
During Karrion Kross and Scarlett’s return on Smackdown, Kross laid out Drew McIntyre
to end that show
Then the following week Kross wasn’t on Smackdown, but Scarlett made her entrance
and appeared to have a message for Drew McIntyre, but they were interrupted by The Usos
Kross actually hasn’t physically appeared on Smackdown that much since his return, but
the story has been progressing through some great promos from Kross and Scarlett
Kross says that WWE selected Drew McIntyre to be the face of the company and how he was
the chosen one when he first arrived in WWE, but how they were wrong about that
Kross says that Roman Reigns was the one WWE turned to when Drew McIntyre didn’t get
the job done of being the chosen one
And how Roman did what Drew McIntyre was first supposed to do
So Kross is not lighting up at all and is still coming right after Drew McIntyre
Right before his face to face with Roman Reigns, Drew also discovered an hourglass in his locker-room,
a clear warning sign from Karrion Kross and Scarlett
So even though we already saw Karrion Kross’ return, his disappearance in recent weeks
is starting to build up more suspense for when he may strike again
He’s sending words, messages, and warnings to Drew McIntyre while staying completely
away from Smackdown
So it would appear that we’re building up to some big payoff here of Karrion Kross reappearing
once again to attack Drew McIntyre in a crucial moment
The biggest spot in mind to see a payoff like that happen at is obviously the Clash At The
Castle main event, no bigger spot to have this moment at than that show right there
Remember that Roman Reigns will most likely be alone again at Clash At The Castle
The Usos have their trouble entering other countries, so they may be unavailable for
Clash, and Paul Heyman may still be on his hiatus as well, so Roman has a high possibility
of making his Clash entrance by himself
He won’t have his usual reinforcements and distractions there if there’s no Heyman
and Usos at ringside
So Karrion Kross coming out to screw Drew McIntyre at Clash may be the way that Roman
gets his escape from Drew McIntyre
There’s all these crazy rumors for the closing moments of Clash At The Castle
Some fans think that Karrion Kross will make his presence felt again in some way during
that match.
Others are reaching a bit further with their predictions and think we’ll see Bray Wyatt
appear and be the big distraction for Roman and Drew
They’re both good ideas, it’ll be a great place for Karrion Kross to finally execute
his plan on Drew McIntyre
And if it was someone like Bray Wyatt that makes the distraction, that will obviously
be very exciting
Of course you have the whole narrative there that Roman won his current universal title
from The Fiend, but at no time did he ever pin the fiend or gave him a rematch, so there
is a story and narrative there for Bray’s return
But the big downside to doing that story is that Roman Reigns will still obviously win,
so no real point in doing that story if it’s just gonna be Bray returning for a big loss
So if Bray does come back, it’ll probably be a better idea to keep him away from Roman
for a bit and get some momentum going instead of just being thrown in there with Roman
That’s the latest for the entire overlapping stories of McIntyre versus Kross and McIntyre
versus Reigns
We’ll have to see when Kross will end up striking again and if there’s a possibility
that we even see some surprise returns during all this

the MMM was a Vince McMahon project for the most part and has been through some ups and
downs in recent weeks
Towards the start of their run together, there was a point where their segment kept getting
cancelled and delayed for the following week
Then right around Summerslam time, Maxxine Dupree makes her debut with rumors that Max
Durpree was removed from the group
Then a few weeks later, Max is back and joins his sister in MMM
so it’s just been a little bit all over the place, but it seems that even more cracks
are showing up with MMM, mostly revolving around Maxxine
When MMM was interrupted and cut off by a Hit Row musical performance, Maxxine was the
only MMM member to stay on the stage and actually love the performance from Hit Row
It was Max who had to pull her away from watching Hit Row
Then in a backstage segment, Maxxine talked with Humberto and Angel Garza for a few moments
before Max had to pull her away again
Maxxine’s response was that it’s just her way of scouting for MMM
Some fans speculate that Hit Row versus MMM may be what we end up seeing here in the near
future
Hit Row obviously cut them off and both stables have a woman and multiple men, so you could
pull off a mixed tag team match
But the overlapping story in that feud will obviously be Maxxine Dupree and what she can
end up doing
Does she stay in MMM with her current role or does the character realize that there’s
other fun things she can be a part of on Smackdown outside of MMM?
That will be the big decision for her to make that may affect the future of MMM altogether,
so that will be interesting to see unfold

Edge made his miracle return to the wrestling ring a few years back in 2020 and it was one
of the most magical moments we’ve seen in quite sometime
He spent 9 years on the shelf being told he’ll never wrestle again and never stopped fighting
for that clearance until he finally got it
The problem is that 9 years did go by and Edge will now be turning 49 in October 2022
Ever since he first came back in 2020, he said that it wasn’t gonna be a long term
thing and he’ll retire after a few years on his own terms compared to how his 2011
retirement was on injury terms
Well during a recent interview with Bleacher Report, Edge says that his retirement is in
sight and that the end is near
He had this to say when asked about his current run and retirement plans, quote:
"This run, I feel I've been able to do some of that.
To me, that has been one more layer on this cake that was already tasty anyway.
I am enjoying and soaking in every moment with the complete realization that it's going
to end soon.
I know the end is in sight, and I can see it, and because of that, it makes me enjoy
it more.”
End quote
So obviously not something the fans wanna hear, but Edge is being realistic and saying
that this miracle return run is almost coming to a close
So seeing Edge retire again will be just as hard as seeing it go down the first time
