Karrion Kross’ move to the WWE main roster has been a mixed bag.
After his unsuccessful debut on WWE RAW in which he lost to Jeff Hardy, he bounced back with a win over Keith Lee this past week.
Kross’ loss to Hardy has generated a lot of controversy, as many fans were shocked that the reigning NXT Champion lost his first match on the red brand.
In a post on his Instagram page, Kross commented on his first few weeks on the main roster and noted how it has been “awesome” because he has gotten the opportunity to perform in front of live fans on WWE RAW:
Scarlett asked me in private many months ago what would be my ideal scenario for going up to main roster.
I told her in a perfect world,
I’d love to work both shows; @wwenxt & @wwe #WWERAW and possibly even #WWESmackdown.
I wanted as much as what was available to do.
Birthday rolls around months later,
And on that very day of July 19th,
I got what I wanted.
Never discussed it with anyone, never talked about it.
I just put it out there in the universe and did my best to privately work towards it.
Getting in front of a packed arena, full house and having the opportunity to do what I love in front of the #WWEUniverse; to hear, see and feel them after over a year of being here without a full attendance and chasing this for so long before I arrived…
This month has been pretty awesome.
Looking forward to the future…
And more. ⏳ #TickTock
While Kross continues to compete on WWE RAW, he remains the NXT Champion, so he will seemingly split time between the brands, at least for the next few weeks.
