WWE Star Makes Bold Declaration For ‘When’ He Wins Universal Championship

WWE

Karrion Kross has made a bold declaration regarding a character change “when”, not if, he wins the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship.

Kross returned to to WWE along with his manager and real life wife Scarlett Bordeaux on the August 5 edition of SmackDown, attacking Drew McIntyre.

It was their first appearance in the company following their release on November 4 of the previous year.

Now Kross has his eyes on the biggest title in WWE, as he explained in a recent interview with the Daily Star.

Kross first discussed his initial call up to the main WWE roster, when he was given an embarrassing makeover by WWE creative that saw him wear a helmet and what some would describe as red “bondage gear”:

“I wasn’t overly fond of the concept they had pitched to me when I was coming up on the main roster the first time. But it wasn’t anything personal. When you sign a contract with WWE this is what it is and I’m very much of the old school belief that whatever I’m given I’m gonna do my absolute best to get that over so it’s enjoyable towards the audience.

“It wasn’t my idea but that’s okay, we’re given other people’s ideas all the time – that’s part of the job – and we do our best to make it entertaining. While I wasn’t fond of it and it wasn’t my idea that didn’t really matter to me. There was no animosity towards anyone at all. It was just something that in the end didn’t work when we did our best to try and make it work.”

He also spoke about his ambitions for the top prize in the company, and how Scarlett factors into those plans:

“When we become WWE Undisputed Universal Champion together, I think you’re going to see a proper supervillain. It’s not going to be any sort of gray area, you’re gonna know that we are the bad guys.”

The Undisputed WWE Universal Championship is currently held by Roman Reigns, who will defend the title against Logan Paul at WWE Crown Jewel this Saturday, November 5. Kross himself will be in action on the show, taking on rival Drew McIntyre inside a steel cage.
