WWE star Karrion Kross reveals when he will retire once and for all

The Doom Walker recently sat for an interview with WWE Hall of Famer Jesse Ventura on the latter's Substack. During the conversation, Ventura asked Kross about his retirement plans.

The two-time NXT Champion stated he will continue wrestling until he is forced to retire. Karrion Kross recounted his childhood fascination with professional wrestling, citing Hulk Hogan and other WWE legends as his earliest influences.

"Until they kick me out and tell me never to come back. Professional wrestling entered my life at a very young age, Jesse. The very first memory I can recall even having visually is watching the television, watching Hulk Hogan and Macho Man, and the Ultimate Warrior. I was pre-programmed as a kid to be in love with this. When you're little, you have your cartoons, and you know that's just totally fiction. And then you see wrestling, and guys are real, and wait a minute, they are coming to town, and you can see these guys for real? Oh my god, that was just so unbelievable!"

Only time will tell if The Herald of Doomsday will pursue a major singles championship following WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas.
