WWE Star Breaks Character To Praise Current Rival

WWE

In recent weeks, AJ Styles and Mia Yim of the OC have been locked in a feud with Karrion Kross and Scarlett on SmackDown.

The two faced off against each other on last week’s SmackDown at Madison Square Garden in a short match that had time cut from it due to the overrunning Bloodline segment.

The match saw Mia and Scarlett fight on the outside, leading to Styles defeating Kross in the match.

Speaking on Keepin’ It 100 with Konnan, Kross discussed whether Mia and Scarlett will end up having a match against each other during the rivalry.

Kross said he doesn’t know yet, before putting over AJ after their matches together.

He said:

“It’s possible (that Scarlett might wrestle Mia Yim). We find out things somewhat last minute and we just roll with it. But yeah, it’s A.J. (Styles) and I have been working, he’s amazing to work with. Yeah, he’s the best. 

“The thing that stands out to me with him, and I agree with everything that you (podcast co-host) just said (about Styles being a top 10 wrestler in history), was he has a ring IQ of like nobody that I’ve probably ever met. I’ve met people with super high ring IQs. For anyone who’s not in the loop of what I mean by that is just like how you would structure a match for the time and place for people involved. The way he sees wrestling is like he was ahead of his time in my opinion when he was coming up in TNA and I still think in a lot of aspects, he’s still ahead of his time even present day.

“I think there’s things that he’s doing, there’s nuances in things he’s doing that people aren’t even picking up that people will study in probably a decade from now going, he was the only one doing that and I won’t say what it is but if you know, you know when you watch his work…”

Kross and Scarlett, as well as Liv Morgan, were in attendance for the premiere of the Barbie movie last night.
