Former Tag Team Champions Set For Return and Form New Faction on SmackDown
The Authors of Pain (Akam & Rezar) with Paul Ellering are set to make their return and join forces with Karrion Kross.
There has been a buzz regarding Authors of Pain returning to WWE soon. As it seems, Akam and Rezar are indeed returning with Paul Ellering by their side.
On this week's Friday Night SmackDown, WWE dropped a vignette featuring Karrion Kross and Scarlett. They talked about the list of superstars who competed against him and noted that they changed soon after. He took credit for the changes and dropped hints that the 'authors' were coming.
"Even the greatest proclamation is soon to be forgotten without a scribe ... without Authors."
Authors of Pain had re-signed with WWE last year before Vince McMahon returned as Chairman earlier this year. The duo were part of the WWE travel plans since May this year. However, there were no creative plans for them.
If reports are to be believed Authors of Pain will officially return to television at SmackDown: New Year’s Revolution in two weeks on the January 5, 2024.
Authors of Pain are two-time tag team champions in WWE. Ahead of their main roster move, they had captured the NXT Tag Team Championship and went on to become the RAW Tag Team Champions.
The two powerhouses Akam and Rezar were also aligned with the former WWE Universal Champion Seth Rollins on Raw. This time around, it seem Karrion Kross will be leading them and they could be the next big thing on the blue brand.
