Last week WWE released a total of 18 Superstars, and former NXT Champion Karrion Kross was one of the more surprising names on the list.
It seemed that Karrion Kross had a bright future following his NXT run, but his run on the main roster didn’t work out quite the same way.
WWE Hall of Famer Eric Bischoff recently discussed the releases on his 83 Weeks podcast, and he also tried to add some perspective to how things could play out for released talents moving forward.
“Karrion Kross, what the hell? To get that close and have the rug get pulled out from underneath you is emotionally really, really devastating because of the time and the commitment that goes into trying to make it to the big leagues, but again going back to what I’m thinking when I saw this is once they get out of the funk, the disappointment of being let go, it’s just nothing but opportunity, man.”
