News regarding the internal reactions in WWE to Karrion Kross’ “worked-shoot” promo
As seen during the WWE WrestleMania 41 Sunday PLE, AJ Styles lost to Logan Paul after turning down an opportunity from Karrion Kross to cheat. Kross cut a “worked-shoot” promo after the event.
According to Fightful.com, Kross’ unscripted segment “turned heads” from people within WWE. The segment, which needed approval due to its language, made the final cut without causing any backstage heat for Kross. Several WWE talents stated that they contacted Kross to check on him and praise his promo. Kross was given credit for effectively blended his character with real emotion.
WWE reportedly plans to elevate Kross in a “unique” manner with a focus on his presence outside of the ring.
To my knowledge they’re working on restocking.
