The announcement of this match comes after Kross and his wife Scarlett were involved in an angle where they laid out Cardona for Game Changer Wrestling over the weekend, helping their friend Shotzi Blackheart defeat him.

“I’ll drink your blood Matt,” Kross posted on Instagram. “I’ll eat your skin and chase it with a double shot espresso. Maybe even eat your brains… and gain your knowledge.”

Kross and Scarlett announced on August 10 that they were now taking bookings following the expiration of their WWE contracts. Despite speculation to the contrary, Kross has maintained that the situation is legitimate and not a work that’s being orchestrated by him and WWE.

Defy Wrestling and WrestlePro have booked Kross for upcoming events as well. The WrestlePro match will be against Richard Holliday in Rahway, New Jersey on September 21.

House of Glory’s October 10 show, titled “With Glory Comes Pride,” is taking place from the NYC Arena in Queens and will stream live via TrillerTV+. Leon Slater vs. Amazing Red is also set for the show, and Matt & Jeff Hardy and Indi Hartwell are among the others who will be part of the card.
