Last week on NXT, we finally seen Scarlett Bordeaux & Karrion Kross make a proper debut on the show. This came at the expense of Leon Ruff, who got absolutely demolished by Karrion Kross. Scarlett played the manager role, and also was a major part of the entrance. One person who was impressed by her was someone who has known her for a very long time. This is the Monday Night Messiah, Seth Rollins.
Seth Rollins Is Excited For An Old Friend
Speaking with Plantea Wrestling, Rollins would say that he sees nothing but potential in this new duo. “I’ve known Scarlett for a very long time, Karrion is someone that I’m starting to become familiar with. Scarlett is from Chicago, she came up in the Chicago indies. I was there before she was even training to be a wrestler. I remember she was this annoying little girl that wouldn’t go away at the shows in Chicago, and now to see what she’s turned into, it’s awesome, man.
It’s really inspiring to see someone, who maybe I didn’t see so much potential in to begin with, get to this point in her career. She’s made it to the big time, and I think Karrion’s got all the potential in the world. Obviously their entrance Wednesday was something to behold. I’m looking forward to seeing what becomes of that. You only get one shot to make that first impression, and they did it with flying colors.”
Scarlett Bordeaux Had A Unique Path Through Wrestling
While most wrestlers would be introduced to wrestling through a major company like WWE, but Scarlett truly came up through the Independant Circuit. After joining friends as they went to shows in the Chicago area, she would fall in love with the business and work to become a manager. Not content with just that role, she would also enter the ring as a wrestler. She went from indie wrestling fan, to indie wrestling manager, to indie wrestler, and now got into the biggest company in wrestling.
While she might be stuck as just a manager, she does have some serious skills in the ring, but has only wrestled a handful of matches on TV during her time with companies like Impact Wrestling. We could see her fill a role similar to Zelina Vega with Andrade on Monday Night RAW or Penelope Ford with Kip Sabian on AEW Dynamite, mainly being in corner of their clients, but not being afraid to get involved physically with matches and even getting in the ring themselves. She could prove to be very dangerous.
