A New Force Emerges in WWE

Summary

– AOP returns to WWE SmackDown, joining forces with Karrion Kross and Scarlett under Paul Ellering’s guidance.

– The new faction is named “The Final Testament,” hinting at a biblical and apocalyptic theme.

– This development signals a significant shift in WWE’s storyline dynamics.

During the January 12th episode of WWE SmackDown, the wrestling world witnessed the formation of a formidable new faction. AOP (Authors of Pain), who returned during the New Year’s Revolution episode, have now teamed up with Karrion Kross and Scarlett under the management of Paul Ellering. This alliance has been aptly named “The Final Testament.”

Paul Ellering’s interruption of Bobby Lashley and the Street Profits’ promo set the stage for this major reveal. Karrion Kross then appeared on the big screen, cutting a promo where he introduced each stable member and unveiled their collective name. The name “The Final Testament” carries a biblical and somewhat apocalyptic connotation, fitting the ‘end of days’ theme that Kross and AOP are known for.

This new faction, comprising Kross, AOP, Scarlett, and Ellering, is poised to impact WWE’s storyline significantly. With Triple H likely to focus on them, especially considering AOP’s long-standing contract and recent return to television, “The Final Testament” is set to be a major player in the wrestling world.
