Karrion Kross knows a match against Roman Reigns in the future is inevitable, but there’s a time and place for everything.
SmackDown Superstar Karrion Kross recently sat down with USA Insider to discuss a wide variety of subjects. When asked about his surprising WWE release last November, Kross said he tried not to dwell on the negative and instead focused on the support from the fans and the industry he received over the last several months.
“Sometimes it is what it is,” Karrion Kross said. “As a person, I tend to not dwell on negative situations or scenarios that I can’t really do anything about. I tend to constantly think about how I can recover from a situation immediately, both personally and professionally, and that’s exactly what I did. The day we were released we had almost 12 months of work lined up in almost 12 hours. The fan support, the industry support … we were really well supported throughout the whole thing when we were released.”
Now that he’s been back for a few months on SmackDown, Kross said a match against Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship is on his radar. But in the meantime, he wants to focus on being different than everything else on WWE programming.
“Competing against Roman Reigns for the titles he holds is always on my radar. But there’s a time and place for everything,” Karrion Kross said. “In the meantime, I am very much about showing the audience moments and stories where we can explore different aspects of the characters they’ve been watching for a very long time. I want to diversify our programming whenever I’m on. I want it to feel different whenever I’m on versus everything else you see before me or after me. That’s why I approach things the way I do, that’s why I work the way that I do, and that’s why I request to be produced the way that I do.”
