WWE’s Bizarre Request For Karrion Kross Left Him “Pissed Off”

[Administrator]

What Went Down with WWE's "Bizarre Request"
In his recent documentary, Karrion Kross revealed that after a post‑RAW moment—well after the official show had ended—he instinctively turned to acknowledge a little girl calling out to him, prompted by a gentle pinch from his wife. It was a small, heartfelt connection in the moment.



However, shortly after, someone from WWE management told him he "shouldn't have been doing that" without listening to his context. It wasn't a conversation—it was a directive, delivered with no empathy, and it left him genuinely pissed off. Especially since, in wrestling tradition, both heels and faces historically acknowledge fans, with no problem.


Booking & Creative Frustrations
SmackDown/Raw Utilization: Kross has consistently expressed confusion over how WWE wants to handle his character. He's pitched much darker, more twisted heel angles—"the most vile character anyone has ever seen"—but those ideas haven't been approved. He remains unsure about WWE's long-term character direction for him.


WrestleMania Snub: After WrestleMania 41, Kross publicly aired his frustrations about being left off the show, using a scathing promo. He stressed he wasn't angry—just incredibly hungry—and that he wanted fans to feel they got every penny's worth of entertainment. That promo eventually led to more TV time, but his message was clear: he wanted to be more than just a background "Easter Egg."

What's Next: Contract Status & Future
Contract Expiration: As of August 10, 2025, both Karrion Kross and Scarlett have officially parted ways with WWE. Their names have been moved to the Alumni section on WWE.com, and they're no longer listed on the internal roster.


Mixed Contract Reports: Conflicting reports have circulated recently—some outlets suggested WWE made a contract offer intending to re-sign him, possibly as part of a storyline or promotional tactic. But most recent developments point to their departures being officially confirmed.

Kross is now a free agent, and his self-produced documentary and candid comments suggest he's ready to explore new opportunities, whether within WWE again, indie promotions, or elsewhere. He wants creative freedom to express the dark persona he's envisioned—and fans are eagerly watching what's next.
