Karrion Kross won his second WWE NXT Championship from Finn Balor a few months ago. Since then, Kross has proven to be a dominant champion. He managed to retain his title in a Fatal 5-Way match at NXT TakeOver: In Your House 2021.

Kross is set to face Johnny Gargano in a one-on-one contest on the upcoming episode of NXT.

Meanwhile, Samoa Joe returned to NXT a few weeks ago and quickly became the new enforcer on the brand. Apart from Adam Cole, Joe has had a few intense moments with Kross. The Samoan Submission Machine will play the role of a guest referee during the match between Johnny Wrestling and the current NXT Champion.

Could Joe cost Karrion Kross the title after the two end up exchanging a few blows?

I believe the young Champion is correct. It is “simple”, and I will be at the Great American Bash maintain said “simplicity”. https://t.co/WrckPlIYu1

While WWE may not take the title off Kross this week, he could soon end up losing the title and moving to the main roster.

The possibility of Samoa Joe costing him the title may allow the current NXT Champion to retain his credibility.
