Karrion Kross had spoken that frustration among WWE stars isn’t specifically at Logan Paul.
Karrion Kross turned heads during the WWE WrestleMania 41 recap show with a powerful and intense promo. In a recent vlog, Logan Paul stated that some WWE stars are unhappy with the level of attention and opportunities he receives despite his limited in-ring experience.
Addressing Logan Paul’s recent comments, Karrion Kross took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to clarify the true source of frustration WWE stars. He made it clear that the issue extends far beyond Paul.
“It’s been brought to my attention that somebody in WWE thinks that his peers have a problem with his position in the company. He still doesn’t get it. No one has a problem with his position. The problem is that, for some people who have put 20, even 30 years in, they were told that there was a certain skill set that they had to acquire.”
“Putting time in was going to equate to having very particular opportunities. Those opportunities don’t seem to be available for those people. Now because they did not build a brand outside of the company. And for an extended period of time, no one was allowed to build a brand outside of the company.”
Karrion Kross says the real problem isn’t Logan Paul
“That’s the issue, that’s the problem. This person who believes everyone has a problem with him it’s not about him. Anyone could be him, and people would have a problem with that. If people were told, when they went to professional wrestling schools, that they had to build a brand outside of the company in order to position them better to have the opportunities that they could knock out of the park, that’s exactly what they would have done. Professional wrestlers, in my opinion, have the strongest and greatest work ethic in the world. And if someone would have told them that this is what they had to do, that’s what they would have done. Now, for some of those people, it’s too late.”
Karrion Kross admits respect for Logan Paul but questions treatment of veterans
“So I ask the person: what are we supposed to do? What are we supposed to do? Are we just going to wipe out an entire group of performers that have been doing this for an extended period of time because it’s impossible for them to catch up to that advantage? Me personally, I’m actually learning from that person, I see how the business is responding to that person.”
“I don’t dislike that person, I think that person’s great, which I’ve been on record to say. I like that person, I think they’re very cunning. I think that they do the things that I wish Sami Zayn would do. And then he’d be world champion, I just don’t think he still gets it. And I’m actually shocked that he’s rattled in the way that he is about this, because he doesn’t have to be. But here we are, I think you guys get it, though.”
