Killian Dain was released from his WWE contract a short while ago. The release came days after his wife and RAW Superstar Nikki Cross debuted a new superhero gimmick on the Red brand. Dain signed a deal with the company in 2016 and enjoyed a successful stint as a member of SAnitY, a stable that also included Cross.
The stable was disbanded during the 2019 WWE Superstar Shakeup. Nikki Cross did fine for herself on the main roster and won the Women's Tag Team titles with Alexa Bliss on two occasions. Her new superhero gimmick garnered quite a mixed reaction from the WWE Universe but Dain soon cleared the air and revealed that it was her idea:

"She had an idea and saw it brought to life. Very excited to see whats next! Go go Nikki!!!!" tweeted Killian Dain.
Cross seems to be enjoying her portrayal of a superhero on WWE RAW and one wonders what's in store for her in the coming months. As for Dain, he's an incredible talent who would be a good fit for any promotion that gets its hands on him.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
