Keith Lee confronts Karrion Kross

While all of us thought that it’ll be Karrion Kross who kickstarts this rivalry, the actions of the brutal Kross endured that it was the other way around.

Kross faced off against the super talented Dominik Dijakovic. As per expectations, the match was hard hitting considering the extremely physical style of wrestling sported by the two competitors.

At one point, it seemed like the invincible Kross was about to become the victim of a huge upset. A vicious without chokeslam by Dijakovic seemed like the end of the road for Kross.

However, the devious heel decided to deliver a cheap shot in order to win the contest. He smashed the head of Dijakovic between the steel steps and the ring post.

Then, he would drag the unconscious body of Dijakovic to the ring, landing some heavy elbows on his face. At this point, Keith Lee tried to come in to make the save.

However, a defiant Dijakovic refused to take any help. Keith Lee had no choice but to see Kross feed on the carcass of Dijakovic.

We can’t say that we are unhappy. Karrion Kross and Keith Lee are two of the best professional wrestlers in the entire world. Their match down the line will certainly provide for some exciting television.
