WWE Royal Rumble 2023 just concluded. And several WWE superstars delivered surprising performances, but a few promising talents failed to deliver up to the mark. WWE superstars such as Brock Lesnar, Bobby Lashley, Karrion Kross, and The Miz were some of the few that had a disappointing Rumble.
Kross’ reputation was tarnished after he suffered a loss at the rumble. He lasted less than 5 minutes and was eliminated by a former foe, Drew McIntyre. Karrion Kross is currently going through a rough patch and recently lost to Rey Mysterio at SmackDown before Royal Rumble. In dire need of a good feud, where Kross dominates, he is steadily losing all of his momentum.
However, recently, the former NXT Champion took to Twitter to post his recent accomplishment. This impressed his fans and fell heads over heels for his accomplishment. All of the social media came together and started congratulating him on his achievement.

Kross took to Twitter to announce his promotion to purple belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. He took to Twitter and wrote, “Very grateful for my training partners, coaches, my Wife who keeps me fed to kill and everyone at @DGBJJO. We never stop learning.” He thanked everyone involved and showed his gratitude.
Promoted! 🟣💀🟣

WWE fans congratulate Karrion Kross on his latest accomplishment
Receiving a promotion to Purple belt in BJJ is an extremely tough and rare feat. The belt ranks here are white, blue, purple, brown, and black. While all students begin with white, very few receive promotions to the next hierarchical belt.
And, Kross received his promotion to purple belt, after being a white belt.
EXCELLENT KILLER BUBBA

This is why you are a great example of a true martial artist. “We never stop learning” truer words never misspoken. Being a Master in #Taekwondo for 30 years. It’s one thing I continue to press upon the students I teach. Immerse yourself and learn all you can to pass on. Godspeed

However, it is still a very rare feat, and only a few can achieve it. And Kross can proudly call himself a part of it. With his talent and determination, his next step might be toward the brown and black belt. WWE fans can now expect a more ruthless version of Kross, and his opponents now need to fear him more.
