Triple H announced the introduction of the new World Heavyweight Championship on last night’s (April 24) episode of Raw.
The title will be awarded to the brand that does not draft Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns in the 2023 WWE Draft, starting on this week’s SmackDown.
The introduction of a new second world championship has allowed for more opportunity for many new WWE stars to potentially win the title in the coming year.
Many fans have taken to Twitter to name the wrestlers they believe should become the new World Heavyweight Champion.
Karrion Kross reacted to fans calling for him to win the title, claiming that the title will be his eventually, but he also has his eyes on being the man to dethrone Roman Reigns.
He said:
I see you all tagging me in the new World Heavyweight Championship photos. Believe me, that will inevitably be mine in due time.
Keep in mind though… The very first person to end Roman’s Championship run is going to make history in such a way that will be never forgotten.
Not to be confused, I want it ALL. I wouldn’t be doing this if I didn’t. The hard road is my road. I’ll continue to put my time in, Take away the time from the next victims and earn what I choose to pursue through the cards. @WWE #KrossCult
Kross recently entered a feud with Shinsuke Nakamura following the King of Strong Style’s return to the blue brand.
