#2 Karrion Kross picked up a victory over Keith Lee on WWE RAW

Karrion Kross picked up a humiliating defeat on his WWE RAW debut last week. The NXT Champion was put in a match against Jeff Hardy, where he ended up losing. This week, Kross came out to face his former rival, Keith Lee. Lee was the man Kross defeated at TakeOver XXX to win his first NXT Championship.

The two men came face to face before Lee used his power over the NXT Champion. The match spilled to the floor when Kross hit a huge overhead suplex to take Lee out for some time.

Back inside the RAW ring, The Herald of Doomsday kept the pressure on Lee. The Limitless One tried to gain some momentum with the Spirit Bomb, but Kross dodged it and hit another overhead suplex.

He hit Lee with a forearm to the back of the neck before locking him in the Kross Jacket. Keith Lee tapped out to award Kross his first win on RAW.

The match was decent and showed what both the superstars are capable of. Oddly, the RAW creative team decided to book another submission loss for Lee. However, it looks like RAW will build Kross as a threat so that he can immediately get in the WWE Championship scene after losing the NXT title.
