I wonder if he was the first choice to face Wardlow instead of W. Morrissey. In which case I'm glad they went with the latter. Morrissey was really good in his Impact run and he deserved the big stage after all he did to recover from rock bottom.

I wouldn't have hated Kross for it, but Morrissey was definitely the better call, if so. Good match, and it got a shitload of views from what I remember. |

So, with the fact that Triple H is enamoured with the guy, Tony Khan wanted to bring him in for a spot and Freddie Prinze Jr wanted him as the ace of his proposed new fed… What are we not seeing as fans that they all are able to, a situation that scarily puts us on the same page as Vince McMahon? It reminds me of how people in the business would always gush over Randy Orton, when all we could pick up were restholds and a finisher. Oh no this is just Mike Bennett all over again it jsut hit me |

Well Regal tweeted out his support of Kross so...do people hate or look down on Regal now?
Eh anyways it continues to be pretty funny how divisive Kross is and the dude has barely done anything atleast in the grandscheme apart from being royally f***ed over on the main roster.

I personally never really judged him on personal beliefs since he seemed like a good guy always just talked of him as a performer. Scarlett? There's other drama from her younger years that skewered my views of her but I'm hoping she has matured since then |

"Toy Story" Karrion Kross promoting his non-existing TikTok account with a swordsman around the corner. That's the quality content I was missing. It was like Satan dwelling in the abyss, mourning about being outcasted from heaven - only he isn't in the abyss, he just hopped into the janitor's closet of Hillsborrough High on taco tuesday.

I don't get the hate? He's got an amazing look, Scarlet is as hot as the rivers of lava flowing in hell, and he can cut a promo.
He has a cool move set to. I personally enjoy the Doomsday Suplex, closest thing we'll see to a AJPW Backdrop Driver in the WWE. And his elbow to the neck looks better than Ospreys hidden blade.

It seems odd to have him debut like that and then just do a backstage promo where he engaged in voyeurism.

On paper I can see why companies think he has potential, it's just does that potential warrant a push to the top?
If he was lower on cards I doubt people would be particularly against him but it just doesn't seem like he brings anything unique to justify being seen at that top level.
I remember seeing the pictures of him in a suit when he was released and he looked great, could have been a model or a low level villian Jason Statham quickly dispatches. I just don't think his look matches the spooky character.
But tbf I've barely seen him outside one match and some clips.

Its funny, so often wrestlers and fans lament that talents don't get to do their own thing with their gimmicks/personas and deride how tightly controlled WWE is with their presentation.
Kross is proof that a little control sometimes might be warranted.
He's not a bad talent and he has a good look, but no matter how passionate he is about this character it never comes off as natural or that engaging. It might be more effective to make the dark overlord stuff be more hinted at; put him (and possibly Scarlett too) in expensive clothes as high class heels with them going into the gothic elements in very extreme scenarios. At the very least it would give KK a chance to do promos that don't feel as forced.

The way he talks and his mannerisms look like some dude overacting in a community theater Shakespeare play. He'd greatly benefit from opening his mouth while talking. It sounds really unappetizing when people speak through their teeth. Overall I think he'd work much better by doing the exact opposite of what he's doing now: Stop acting aggressive, start acting cold. |
