Drew McIntyre is one of the biggest stars of WWE right now and having a feud with The Scottish Psychopath also signifies any wrestler as a big star. Former two times NXT Champion Karrion Kross had the privilege to feud with McIntyre upon returning to WWE in 2022 on Friday Night Smackdown.
Karrion Kross was released from WWE in 2021 but Triple H brought him back in 2022 in the intention of pushing him as a future prospect. As a result, he started a feud with Drew McIntyre as soon as he returns to WWE. The feud between the duo continued for a couple of months and Kross had been quite impressive in it.

One of the biggest achievements in this feud and throughout his WWE career was a huge victory over McIntyre. He defeated McIntyre in a Strap Match at Extreme Rules 2022 event. Kross recently remembered this feud while speaking with "Notsam Wrestling" and discussed the importance of it in his career;

"It was unbelievable. It was the perfect way to be reintroduced – I think – I couldn't have asked for anything better than that," Kross remembered the impact of this feud which is arguably the best feud of his career so far. He continued the discussion by saying;

"I got real big and then I got – what I felt – was too big," he claimed. "I put on a little bit of weight, relatively quickly, I put on like an extra fifteen pounds over like two or three months and I didn't like it." Kross explained that the weight change made him feel less mobile and that he ended up cutting down, reaching his "perfect" weight today. "Like, I feel really, really good. I feel sharp." Concluded Kross.
This may have been a big feud of Kross’ WWE career but he could not achieve much from it as he was started to be treated like a jobber soon after this feud ended. He has improved his situation in the recent time after becoming the leader of The Final Testament faction and hopefully, he gets more success in the upcoming days of his WWE career.
