“He’s the last one” - Karrion Kross puts former WWE Champion on notice ahead of SmackDown

Former NXT Champion Karrion Kross sent a solid message to WWE legend Rey Mysterio ahead of their clash on the upcoming SmackDown.

Many people are unaware that The Herald of Doomsday has spent half of his career wrestling in Lucha Libre promotions. After three years in Lucha Underground, he joined AAA Worldwide, where he worked in major cities and on television.

Taking to Twitter, Karrion Kross recalled a memory from his time wrestling in Mexico. He stated that the competitors in Lucha Libre looked up to The Master of the 619 and wanted to be like him.

Since he had never faced Rey Mysterio, Kross has been stalking WWE's greatest luchador for several weeks, claiming that his time was up. After smashing other lucha wrestlers, The Herald of Doomsday asserted that former WWE champion Rey Mysterio was the final one on his list.

"They all wanted to be him when they grew up, I could see it in their eyes every time. And when I got a hold of them, they knew their time was up. Tomorrow night. He's the last one. El Rey VS El Diablo De Monterrey #Smackdown #TickTock," Kross wrote.
