Am I misreading the gimmicks here, or perhaps Dexter Lumis pulls off Creepy bad ass better, thus Kross is fading?

For me, Scarlett is the most captivating female presence since Miss Elizabeth.
That alone has me interested in his character and matches. This iteration of him seems pretty good so far.

Is this the guy who has his manager lip sync his entrance music?
If so then he’s naff as hell.

I think Kross has potential but dont see him yet as "future main eventer". I feel like if it he would not be as big of a deal if his entrance was not as interesting and if he did not have Scarlett. If/When they split Scarlett from him he will not be as big of a deal (see Rusev with Lana or Marc Mero with Sable).
Booking Kross vs Keith Lee for nxt title now is a lose-lose situation. If Kross wins the belt they waste Lee beating Adam Cole to become double champion and ending his 400+day reign, giving up the north American title, only to lose nxt title a month later (I think Lee should be champion at least until 2021). If Lee wins Kross loses his winning streak, can fall to the mid-card and lost in the shuffle.
They just finished a over year long heel reign, they should have a good length face reign by Keith for now.
I think it would benefit Kross more if he were to win north american title, or even be in the Takeover ladder match as it wont hurt him losing there.
I do agree with others that I find Dexster Lumas more entertaining, and woukd say Dexster and Keith are my 2 favorite acts in NXT now!

Also I may add the best senerio for the title match would be it ends in a DQ/no contest and Keith retains. For the next few months Keith beats several challengers while kross and scarlett hunt him and keep saying "you never beat me, your reign coming to an end, tick tock".

Like others have said, I do think it's way too soon to be doing him vs. Lee.

Hopefully they just drop it all and call him up to be the face of Raw Underground.

He is perfect for this Underground stuff.

Never forget that the last time Kross was in a faux-MMA environment, he called out Dave Bautista. Imagine if that actually materialized (it won’t).

I’ve just realised that Karrion Kross is Killer Kross. I don’t really watch NXT and had only briefly seen the clip of his crap entrance when I was really high.
I take back my comment about him being naff, he has great potential.
