WWE star Karrion Kross appeared on the Battleground podcast, where he discussed various topics, including his angry rant during the recap of WrestleMania 41.
Kross said, “Look, the message is I can hit home runs, too. I am here. I don’t want people to feel like I’m ignoring what they want to see out of me. I’ve known for a very long time. The challenge is to find the common ground and the middle ground between what the company needs for the program and what the audience needs. And very serendipitously, I just had a moment that day where I had an open format. I’ve even said before, you can’t take the audience just being there watching for granted. You have to give them a reason once they tune in as to why they’re watching.”
On wanting to give fans who were burned out something different:
“And another concern that I had that day was people were going to be burned out from watching WrestleMania, because it was a very, very big show. You know, usually typically once a wrestling program ends, most people they’re not looking to continue watching more wrestling, and I wanted something to happen. I wanted to be responsible for something where people that are leaving the venue when they’re driving home, they hear that something happened on that Sam Roberts show.”
