2 Reasons why Joe vs Kross should be at WWE Summerslam and 3 reasons why it should be at a NXT event

#1 A proper WWE main roster debut for Kross

Multiple WWE NXT talents, including the likes of Kross, Scarlett, Shotzi Blackheart and Bronson Reed, were recently reported to have been scouted to fill the gaps in WWE Raw and Smackdown. Shotzi and Tegan Nox have already debuted. Kross, too, has had two appearances on the main roster. Well, sort of.

We all give 100% every single time we’re out there.But a match with me is not just another match.People have a lot more to lose than they’re initially considering.I’m not here to get lost in a shuffle or follow a status quo.My rise to power is the beginning of a legacy.⌛️ https://t.co/idn89Gcm4J

Neither his February 2015 Raw appearance, as a partner of Darren Young, when they were beaten down by The Ascension, nor his recent WWE Main Event bout have been impressive. A talent like Kross deserves a remarkable first impression, and WWE Summerslam can give him precisely what he deserves - a proper main roster showcase.

#1 A perfect opportunity for Kross' WWE NXT farewell

The recurring storyline for reigning titleholders in the brand being called up to the main roster is them losing the Championship at an NXT-labeled event and then joining the main roster. It would be ideal for Kross to do the same and put over an up and coming NXT talent.

Samoa Joe does not seem to be someone with an aspiration to experience the brighter lights of the WWE main roster anytime soon, and he can act as a transitional champion or the vintage dominant Samoan Submission Machine.

Kross can then join the main roster and continue his dominance, with or without the constant presence of his valet. Regardless, the title change should ideally occur at a NXT event, with it also serving as a farewell for Kross and Scarlett.
