He appeared to have given him a warning by saying that his time was up. This week on SmackDown, the former NXT champion and his wife watched Mysterio vs. Angel from the stands. As Mysterio won the match, Kross pointed towards his wrist.
Rey Mysterio was drafted to SmackDown on the October 14th edition of the show.
