Karrion Kross Gives an Update on His WWE Future

While talking to Ariel Helwani on his self-titled show, Kross spoke about how he envisions his immediate future in the promotion.

"I hope that I'm given the flexibility to lean into what the crowd wants from me," Kross said. "More than titles, more than winning—more than anything. At the end of the day, it's about giving the audience what they want. I want to stop going out there and feeling like I'm giving something they don't want."

You can hear in the inflection of his voice how desperately Kross wants to be a consistent player in WWE. He clearly cares about the connection with the fans and wants to do right by them.

It's easy to blame the wrestler when they are in a subpar angle, but sometimes they are just doing what they are told from creative. Kross only has so much of a say in his storylines and how frequently management decides to book him.

Kross deserves at least a sustained push for a few months and the opportunity to be heavily featured on programming. The fact that he's still stuck in C-show purgatory is only an indictment of Triple H and the writers for their inability to strike when something naturally comes to fruition.
