"Have patience" - 39-year-old WWE RAW star on possibly reverting to his old NXT character

WWE RAW Superstar Karrion Kross has commented on possibly changing his character on the main roster by reverting to his NXT look. He had a successful run on the developmental brand during the Black and Gold era.

The Herald of Doomsday is the leader of The Final Testament, a faction that includes his wife Scarlett, Akam, Rezar, and Paul Ellering. They are part of the RAW roster and are currently involved in an angle with The Miz and R-Truth. When Kross was in NXT, he was bald and had a different entrance and theme song.

While speaking in a recent interview with INSIGHT with Chris Van Vliet, the 39-year-old star commented on potentially undergoing a character change by stating:

"Have patience. Bear with me. I’m trying. Again, the minefield that is being in front of the camera and trying to be as open and honest as possible. I could say exactly how I feel about it, what I’d like to do. I’m sure people could imagine, and they could also imagine it will irk people at work for me to be like, hey, I’m aware of what you want to see out of me. I’m always trying to find a way to make both parties happy. I’m the wrestler, not the writer or the director for a lack of better words, I know, believe me."
