Karrion Kross gets emotional after WWE finally gives him a match at Night of Champions 2025

Karrion Kross is finally on the verge of a push as WWE has booked a match between him and Sami Zayn for Night of Champions 2025. Following this week's RAW, Kross took to his X account to thank fans for their unwavering support.

It's no secret that the former NXT Champion had quietly become a fan favorite, as he was being loudly cheered despite being relegated to Main Event. Although he did make appearances in backstage segments on TV, he rarely got to perform on RAW. However, the WWE higher-ups have now finally rewarded Karrion Kross for his efforts by giving him a match at Night of Champions 2025 this week.

Kross is set to face Sami Zayn at the upcoming premium event, after weeks of simmering tensions between the two on the red brand. The 39-year-old star took to X to acknowledge fans' support and thank them for having his back.

Check out his tweet:

"All of you online & especially live at the shows made this happen. Stay loud for what you like and what you want to see. Keep it •positive• and they will always listen. In closing: I told you, I’m very big on loyalty. When you show up for me, I’ll show out for you," wrote Kross.

It now remains to be seen how Karrion Kross fares at Night of Champions 2025, as Zayn is expected to be the heavy favorite heading into the match.
