Killer Kross Announced For MLW Debut Following Impact Release

Killer Kross was released from Impact Wrestling just yesterday and now his first appearance outside of the company has been announced in form of an MLW show.

The company took on their Twitter today and announced that Kross will be making his MLW debut during the Fightland event on February 1, 2020 at the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania:

Killer Kross has made appearances for promotions such as Lucha Underground and AAA so far in his career but he is primarily known for his stint with Impact Wrestling.

He made his debut for the company in June 2018. The promotion had pushed him as one of their top stars since then and he had challenged for the Impact World title a couple of times.

Killer Kross, however, asked for his release from the company in May earlier this year and it was said that the heavyweight star was unhappy with his current pay and the creative direction of his character.

At the time, Impact Officials decided against giving him a release and the two sides continued negotiating a new deal as the expiry date for his original contract in December came close.

Impact had the option to roll his contract over for another year but the officials decided not to do so and earlier this week, they released a short statement confirming his release.
