Killer Kross And Scarlett Bordeaux Address Ring Of Honor Rumors
Killer Kross and Scarlett Bordeaux have revealed just how close they came to appearing at Ring Of Honor's Supercard of Honor pay-per-view ... but they're not entirely sure why the deal fell through.
Kross and Scarlett opened up about their ROH negotiations during a recent interview with Wrestling Inc's Nick Hausman. According to the newlyweds, they were in talks to appear at Supercard of Honor back in April, but discussions stalled when ROH was purchased by AEW owner Tony Khan.
"Basically, we were told that they’d be interested in having the both of us for the Supercard," Kross recalled. "So, basically, the correspondent, I don’t want to throw their name out there. I don’t know if they want it out there. But this is the person to be talking to, by the way, out of all the people you would be talking to, would be the person. So, they said, ‘do you have this date free?’ I said, ‘for this, yes, I absolutely do,’ it was a no-brainer, we were basically just working out a number,” he continued.

Kross said that there was radio silence for some time, while Scarlett added that their appearance had to be approved by ROH higher-ups due to the fact that she and Kross are "big money talent."
And then Tony Khan bought Ring of Honor and things changed. As ownership changed hands, some people at ROH were laid off, including Kross' correspondent.
Of course, it's still a possibility that Kross and Scarlett will appear in ROH when the promotion gets up and running again. In the meantime, Kross will be working for New Japan Pro Wrestling, as well as MLW and several indie promotions.
Killer Kross has never performed in an ROH ring before, but Scarlett Bordeaux is no stranger to the company. Between 2013 - 2017, the former NXT star worked three matches for the promotion's women's division.
