The recent departure of Karrion Kross and Scarlett from WWE has been a topic of discussion in the wrestling world, and Drew McIntyre has now offered his thoughts on the situation. McIntyre, who has experienced his own WWE release and successful return, spoke with confidence about the duo’s future.
McIntyre was released from WWE in 2014 and spent several years on the independent circuit, completely reinventing himself before making a triumphant return to the company in 2017.
Drew McIntyre: “They’re Gonna Land on Their Feet”
In an interview with Adam Glyn of Adam’s Apple (H/T to WrestlingNews.co), McIntyre was asked for his reaction to the Kross news. He was quick to praise the talent of both Kross and Scarlett and shared his confidence in their ability to succeed wherever they go next.
“I know Kross well, very talented. Scarlett, and no matter what they do, they’re gonna land on their feet,” McIntyre said. “I don’t have to give them advice. They know exactly what they’re doing.”
Advice for All WWE Wrestlers
McIntyre then shared some advice based on his own experience, a message that applies not only to Kross but to any performer looking to make a name for themselves. He noted the importance of hard work and finding a unique quality that sets you apart.
“For everybody else, it’s just you’ve got to keep putting the work in,” McIntyre said. “You’ve got to find what separates you from everybody else, as long as you’re working your ass off, and leaving no stone unturned, have been accountable to yourself, to the person in the mirror.”

A Blueprint For a WWE Comeback
Drew McIntyre’s own career is the ultimate blueprint for a successful post-WWE run. After being released from his first WWE contract, he returned to the independent scene and completely transformed himself. He became the top champion in multiple promotions, including TNA and ICW, and developed a new, more intense and believable character.
This reinvention made him one of the hottest free agents in the world and led to his celebrated return to WWE. His second run has been a massive success, with multiple world championship reigns and a Royal Rumble victory. His advice to Kross and others is born from his own lived experience, a story of betting on himself and succeeding at the highest level.
