•Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio:

"I think the Karrion Kross thing smells like an angle…They plugged his book and then Paul Heyman today on Ariel Helwani’s show talked about him being like this new Steve Austin, so it's like he ain't going anywhere. But I was told the story about him not being signed to a contract, I heard that is legit, but he did get an offer. Maybe when the story that he didn't get an offer was written it was accurate, but I was told he's gotten an offer and I don't expect him going anywhere," Meltzer said.

"It was almost like the way this whole thing went down that I was thinking the R-Truth thing was a shoot and it did so well that it's like maybe we can work everyone with another R-Truth story...They're gonna work and work and work because they think that's the deal. People got mad at me for even suggesting this, but the amount of distrust that will be there six months from now is pretty damn high."

Kross deserves a new deal and substantial push . We as fans see it and he's just waiting to be unleashed as a menacing heel.

Maybe get rid of the long hair for starters. He looked like a bad ass whwn he was bald

Yeah he looked like a Serial Killer when he was bald wished he would go back to being bald. When it comes to a new Contract for sure if they have signed him keep it a secret and keep him off of TV and make his return something special to start this true push started.

I'm glad your thinking similar for his bald look as he looked like a legit killer with it. I think he's not as menacing with the long hair and go back to his original nxt gimmick with Scarlet putting the hour glass in there g as a signal times ticking on that person . With wwes machine behind him he could become the top heel in the company.

I just wish they'd put a rocket on him and at least listen to us fans . They do sometimes in the end. Look when they changed Roman to a heel and put him with Heyman.

Saw on X he's apart of the Alumni Section surely it's a work I feel but who knows. Step one complete make people believe he's gone.

It's a work.

And it feels like you gonna see these kinda stunts again and again in the near future. They saw how well things like the Rock/Cody "I give you my Mania match" shit from last year and the Truth situation went for their social media numbers, where engagement is everything and in really old school WWE fashion they gonna go to that well until it's drier than dry.

I do agree with Jeff, this isn't really creative. Honestly, it almost feels like something Russo would pull, you know... shock value over actual creativity, while making the fans, who take part in an outcry over this, feel like they've "been heard".

...or maybe it's somehow about undermining the dirt sheets and "journalists" :hmm:

It's weird how Scarlett never wrestles, she only had two matches on TV in WWE.





She's just as wasted as Karrion if not more.

He's apparently been moved to the alumni section on the website so we'll see.

I wonder if they have the same people in control of the contracts when they fucked up by not telling HHH Adam Coles contract was expiring.

They're really going out of their way to make it look worked if it is a work, all their themes got pulled from music apps
