After parting ways with WWE a few months ago upon the expiration of their contracts, Karrion Kross and his wife, Scarlett Bordeaux, have been making waves across the independent wrestling scene. This dynamic real-life couple has now set their sights on Major League Wrestling (MLW), with the promotion officially announcing their highly anticipated appearance. Scheduled for next month, their return promises to electrify fans, though specific details about their roles remain tantalizingly under wraps.
A Cryptic Announcement Steals the Show
The buzz surrounding Karrion Kross and Scarlett Bordeaux’s MLW debut began during last Saturday’s Slaughterhouse event. A cryptic video abruptly interrupted the broadcast, leaving fans intrigued with its mysterious message.
As the clip unfolded, it revealed that Kross and Bordeaux will headline the MLW x Don Gato: Live Special, a collaboration with Don Gato Tequila. This marks their first MLW appearance in three years, set to take place on November 20, 2025, at the iconic Charleston Music Hall’s Thunder Studios Arena in Charleston, South Carolina.
