Karrion Kross sends eerie warning ahead of WWE SmackDown

Tonight's WWE SmackDown will see the road to Money in the Bank continue. Karrion Kross has just issued a sinister message ahead of tonight's show as he prepares for a major match next week.

The Herald Of Doomsday continues to lead The Final Testament as they run rampant on RAW. Kross, AOP, Paul Ellering, and Scarlett are viewed as one of World Wrestling Entertainment's darkest factions. Kross was scheduled to face Xavier Woods in a grudge match last week, but the match was scrapped and now he will be wrestling Kofi Kingston as his war with The New Day heats up.

Kross took to Instagram ahead of tonight's SmackDown to share an eerie message. The former NXT Champion included a photo of The Final Testament standing tall, and he tagged each member plus the official accounts for WWE and the USA Network. The upload was made from Vancouver, British Columbia.

"Faith for the fallen.So sayeth,The Final Testament.#WWE [hourglass emoji] #TickTock," Karrion Kross wrote.

Kross' last standard TV match was the loss to Bobby Lashley on the March 8 edition of SmackDown. He worked three non-televised live events in April, but his last televised bout came at WrestleMania XL as The Pride defeated The Final Testament in a Philadelphia Street Fight with Hall of Famer Bubba Ray Dudley as the special referee.
