Kross's shirts have been restocked, and now it appears that fans being vocal about wanting to see him on WWE TV led to another big change. Kross announced that due to the support, WWE will now sell his merchandise at WWE live events instead of just relying on online sales.
'They heard you, loud and clear,' Kross said.
Kross said he met fans who wanted his shirts, so he directed them to the WWE Shop website. The fans wanted the shirt on the spot, and it's something Kross related to. He went to someone in WWE and asked how they could solve this problem, and he got a relatively quick answer.
Fans can finally get Karrion Kross merch in person at WWE live events
'Moving forward, from my understanding, starting this Monday night at RAW, my shirts will be available in the arena. So, it feels awesome, I want to say thank you to everybody, you guys made that happen completely. I don't think I would've had a case [without you]. They're doing alright online, so they see you and they hear you, and I think it's important to check in with people sometimes and tell them that.'

Kross guessed that he was still in NXT the last time he had merch available at a live event. He ended the video by encouraging fans to watch Saturday Night's Main Event and said he'll see fans on Monday.
If you can't make it to an upcoming WWE live event, Karrion Kross merchandise is still available on WWEShop now.

WWE Raw takeaways: Gunther reclaims title; King and Queen of the Ring Tournament begins
WWE Raw takeaways: Gunther reclaims title; King and Queen of the Ring Tournament begins "a sideshow comedian whose greatest achievement is pretending to be me" — WWE (@WWE) June 10, 2025 WWE Monday Night Raw on June 9 took place at PHX Arena in Phoenix, featuring the start of the King and Queen of the Ring Tournaments and a title match between Jey Uso and Gunther in the main event. The first show after Money in the Bank saw WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Bella take the ring in her hometown to promote the all-women's event, WWE Evolution. Bayley also returned this week to get a little payback on Becky Lynch. AJ Styles also got one back on Chad Gable. This week's episode was a very good show from beginning to end. Check out the top takeaways from this week's Raw: CM Punk takes aim at John Cena Decked out in Phoenix Suns colors, John Cena took the ring first, delivering a strong message to the fans. Cena told the audience that they wasted their breath to save a "sideshow comedian" act like R-Truth. Instead of the "keyboard warriors" bringing back someone they will forget about soon, Cena wanted them to bring him real competition. Enter CM Punk. Punk read Cena up and down, telling him that the title has corrupted him. Punk said he knows what the title would do to him, but as the voice of the people, he's willing to become a monster to stop a monster. Punk challenged Cena to a match later in the show, adding a fantastic callback to their first rivalry. CM Punk comparing John Cena to the Yankees was a top tier call back up their OG rivalry 😭 #WWERAW — Public Enemies Podcast (@PublicEnemiesHQ) June 10, 2025 Cena hit everyone with a pump fake. He said, "Let's do it!" But Cena didn't mean on Raw. He challenged Punk to accept the match at Night of Champions in Saudi Arabia. CENA vs. PUNK ONE FINAL TIME Night of Champions? 👀#WWERaw — WWE (@WWE) June 10, 2025 Enter Seth Rollins with his crew. Rollins stopped at the entrance and raised his Money in the Bank briefcase high…and…that was the end of the segment. The John Cena farewell tour is starting to heat up. We all knew Cena would face Punk one last time, and now we know when that will go down – which is somewhat controversial. Punk has been vocal about Saudi Arabia in the past, although he recently softened his stance. This was a solid promo segment between two of the best to ever do it, made even more special considering their history. Rollins coming out to hold his MITB briefcase up as a haunting reminder came off silly since he didn't say or do anything, but it is good to have him around anytime the title is in the ring. Roxanne Perez advances in Queen of the Ring Tournament The first match in the Queen of the Ring Tournament was a fatal four-way match between Rhea Ripley, Roxanne Perez, Liv Morgan and Kairi Sane. Just prior to the entrances, Perez stopped Morgan in Gorilla position to work out a partnership in the name of Judgment Day. Morgan wasn't having it, only agreeing to have Perez stay out of her way. Although reluctant backstage, Morgan found herself receptive to Perez's teamwork throughout the match. They even gave each other a high five after taking Sane out. Ripley and Sane had their moments throughout, both with displays of power and aerial assaults, respectively. Ripley hit a Riptide on Morgan, but Raquel Rodriguez appeared to break up the pin. This allowed Sane a chance to hit an Insane Elbow to both of them, and she then scrambled to the ring to pin Morgan. Perez rushed back into the ring for the reversal pin to take the win. Fans are going to have to relax on the "Rhea Hogan" talk after she failed to win Money in the Bank, and now losing in the opening round of the QOTR. The right person won here, because it adds a whole new layer to Perez-Morgan and Judgment Day. R-Truth speaks, introduces Ron Killings After Bayley returned to run Becky Lynch out of the arena, R-Truth took a mic and jumped on the commentary desk. "Don't let nobody tell you that you don't matter." In what felt like a shoot promo, R-Truth seemingly directly addressed Triple H's claims after Money in the Bank that his release was always a part of the story. There was no fluff here. Every word was straight to the point. "I am back because of y'all!" R-Truth said. That's when R-Truth did something shocking. He put the mic down and cut off his hair with scissors, right there on the commentary table. It was an official signal that Ron Killings has arrived while R-Truth is in the past. The crowd responded with appropriate chants of "Holy sh*t!" R-Truth just shocked EVERYONE with what he did! Say hello to RON KILLINGS!#WWERaw — WWE (@WWE) June 10, 2025 This was a perfect promo – no notes. Ron Killings is here, thanks to the WWE fans. A more serious run for Killings will be interesting to see. Sami Zayn advances in King of the Ring Tournament Who will be the MYSTERY COMPETITOR?! 👀 — WWE (@WWE) June 10, 2025 The first King of the Ring Tournament fatal four-way match was between Bron Breakker (with Paul Heyman), Dominik Mysterio, Penta, and Sami Zayn. It didn't take long for bodies to start flying all over the place in this one. Between Penta just launching himself at will without a care and Breakker turning into a missile, fans were quickly brought to their feet as the intensity of this match was high from start to finish. Mess around with LA Knight and find out! 💥#WWERaw — WWE (@WWE) June 10, 2025 Breakker circled the ring for a huge spear to Penta, but was immediately taken out by LA Knight who disappeared just as quickly as he appeared. Back in the ring, Zayn lined up Mysterio for a Helluva Kick to advance. Zayn was a solid choice to win this fatal four-way, although there were no wrong answers here. This was a very fun match, meeting the on-paper expectations. However, I do have one big gripe with not only this match, but the women's match before it: both of them ended due to outside interference. Can we not just have the four wrestlers in the ring determine the outcome? Here's to hoping we don't have interference in all of these opening-round fatal fours. Gunther beats Jey Uso to reclaim World Heavyweight Championship The main event of this week's show was another heavyweight title match between Gunther and the champ Jey Uso, who entered through the crowd with his son by his side. Uso entered the match still banged up from his match at Money in the Bank, which Gunther took full advantage of once he realized the champ had his midsection taped up. Things weren't looking good for Uso. Even the sleeper hold that he used to win the title at WrestleMania didn't work. But he was able to gain enough momentum to hit a Uso Splash, but couldn't get the pin. gunther had a STRATEGY — WWE (@WWE) June 10, 2025 Gunther would hit a powerbomb, followed by a spear from Uso's playbook. Neither could score a three count. Uso came back with another spear a few moments later, but the splash didn't connect. They then alternated sleeper hold positions, but it was Gunther who would slap it on last, and tightest, to put Uso out to reclaim the title. GUNTHER DOES IT! 🏆 Jey Uso has been dethroned by the Ring General. 😲 — WWE (@WWE) June 10, 2025 There it is. Gunther is back on top. This entry of the Uso-Gunther saga may have been its best. The final sequence was certainly something we don't see everyday, which made it special. To some, all is right with the wrestling world now that Gunther has the gold again. Uso brings a lot of fanfare, especially with the kids who just want to yeet along with their favorite babyface. The older demo has been very critical of his matches due to his limited offense. As someone who has enjoyed Uso's entire career journey from when you couldn't tell him and Jimmy Uso apart as a face-painted tag team to the merch machine that is "Main Event" Jey Uso, I never subscribed to the hyper-critical online voices. Yes, obviously, his matches aren't going to be all-timers, but he's also not as bad as some make it seem. Sometimes, you just gotta enjoy the ride, which includes seeing the audience connect with the character through a four-letter word. All-in-all, I'm not mad at the title change, because they are always welcome on weekly television – but mainly because it did feel like the appropriate time to put the title back on Gunther.

Former WWE Champion Makes Stunning Return on 'Raw' After MITB 2025
Former WWE Champion Makes Stunning Return on 'Raw' After MITB 2025 originally appeared on Athlon Sports. A former world champion is back on WWE TV, and revenge is on her mind. During Monday's episode of "Monday Night Raw," newly minted WWE Women's Intercontinental Champion Becky Lynch demanded an apology from Lyra Valkyria. Advertisement Instead, she received more than she bargained for with a superstar who made her shocking return. Lynch addressed WWE fans following her women's Intercontinental title win at "Money in the Bank." She scolded the fans for not appreciating her. Valkyria had heard enough, and she made her way out. Before Valkyria could get in the ring, Bayley attacked Lynch in her first appearance since suffering a storyline injury. Lynch was the perpetrator and ended up replacing Bayley at "WrestleMania 41." A title match between Lynch and Bayley has been rumored for "WWE Evolution" on July 13 in Atlanta. The event is scheduled to be WWE's final PLE before "SummerSlam." It will also be WWE's second "Evolution" event, which is an all-women's show. Advertisement Bayley hasn't had a match since the April 14 episode of "Monday Night Raw." She defeated Liv Morgan in singles competition. Bayley was expected to team with Valkyria to take on Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez for the WWE Women's Tag Championship at "WrestleMania," but Lynch took her out of action. WWE chief content officer Paul "Triple H" Levesque recently praised Bayley for being a professional about being left off the biggest wrestling show of the year. Bayley's absence at "WrestleMania 41" was surprising to many fans and experts, given that she captured the WWE Women's Championship during the 2024 show.

WWE star R-Truth breaks silence on return after release
The post WWE star R-Truth breaks silence on return after release appeared first on ClutchPoints. Following his surprise return at Money in the Bank, former WWE 24/7 Champion R-Truth thanked the fans for leading to him being brought back after his release. Advertisement A fan on X, formerly Twitter, praised the #WeWantTruth movement for bringing R-Truth back to WWE. 'Wrestling as a collective, fans and wrestlers TOGETHER, used their voices to help get a Black man's job back in less than a WWEK!' the post began. That's why the 'how' is important to ME. 22 million views and broken hearts… Change was made. Period.' R-Truth responded to the post, saying, 'No [cap, We Want Truth] was seen, heard, felt, and understood…. Believe me when I say this, I love EVERY ONE of y'all to death [smiling face with tear emoji.] We made history together.' Son of WWE's R-Truth responds to his return After Money in the Bank, Paul 'Triple H' Levesque addressed R-Truth's surprise return. He called it 'All part of the show,' which does not appear to be the case, at least according to R-Truth's son, Christopher Killings. Advertisement He took to his Instagram Stories by reposting WWE's video of the post. Killings simply said, 'Stop the [cap],' in response to Triple H's comments. That was not his only post. Killings also reposted a video of his father's return, saying, 'Congrats on the new deal[,] dad [two money bag emojis]! Last run [loudly crying face emoji].' R-Truth announced that WWE was not renewing his contract on June 1, 2025, meaning he was released. This led to an internet uproar, and the WWE Universe began chanting, 'We want Truth,' beginning with the following edition of Monday Night RAW. The movement made an impact, as WWE rehired him ahead of Money in the Bank. He came back during the main event tag team match between the team of Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso against John Cena and Logan Paul. Advertisement Towards the end of the match, Cena began using his WWE Championship belt as a weapon against Rhodes. Just when it appeared he was going to cheat his way to another win, a hooded figure attacked him in the ring. He unmasked himself to reveal R-Truth, which received a loud response from the crowd. It is unclear in what capacity he will be involved in the company moving forward. For now, he is back and will likely resume his program with his 'childhood hero,' Cena.
