Raw star Karrion Kross has expressed interest in a new WWE role, amid recent speculation about his in-ring future.

With Kross recently addressing rumors about his contract potentially expiring soon, there has been a lot of talk about what’s next for the popular star.

Speaking on the Masked Man Show, Kross noted that he has expressed interest in becoming a producer.

Noting that his in-ring career is currently his top priority, Kross said:

“I would be open to it. I don’t think I’ve said this publicly, but I have expressed interest in learning how to produce. I will never say who because it’s not important, but I’ve had people far more successful than I have, run their ideas by me to get my opinion on it, run their promos by me to get my opinion on it.

“I’ve always been so flattered by that because some of the people I have watched, even before I was in the business, are coming to me. I’ll never say who it is, but that made me feel, aside from how the audience is reacting to what I’m doing, my confidence went through the roof if very successful people are coming to me and asking me for my opinion.

“I feel like, ‘Perhaps other people feel that I know what I’m doing.’ I certainly do, but to get that validation from people above you and your peers is a very good feeling.

“I have expressed interest, but my number one priority is to be in the ring. There is still meat on the bone left and so many stories we haven’t told yet. So many amazing talents I haven’t had a chance to work with. Right now, we’re headed in the right direction.”
