NXT Champion Karrion Kross comes face to face with Johnny Gargano
NXT GM William Regal and Samoa Joe were in the ring. Johnny Gargano and NXT Champion Karrion Kross came out to the ring. Johnny told Karrion he sucked. Gargano continued claiming that the only reason Kross tried to run him over last week was that he was scared. Kross laughed.
Kross said that he was not only stronger than Gargano, but he had stronger convictions, and only thought of the same three things every morning: Defending the Championship, Main eventing Wrestlemania and Becoming WWE Champion.
Regal revealed that the two would face each other for the NXT Title next week, giving Kross the chance to accomplish his number one goal. Samoa Joe would also be involved as the special guest referee.
