WWE star's outburst should have led to angry Triple H reaction & firing, veteran outlines fumbled opportunity (Exclusive)
A WWE star's relatively recent outburst was apparently an opportunity in disguise, according to wrestling veteran Vince Russo. He spoke about how this could have led to a star being fired as part of the storyline.
Karrion Kross is arguably yet to be considered for a strong push in the Stamford-based promotion. While he has been the NXT Champion twice, no gold has come his way since he joined the main roster. He certainly has exceptional skill in the ring and in terms of character work, which makes his lack of screentime all the more perplexing.
Speaking on Writing with Russo, the WWE veteran pitched a storyline where Kross' wife Scarlett could have gotten fired by an irate Triple H, following his recent outburst:
"And now if I am writing the show, I am opening up the next show with Triple H calling Karrion Kross out. I saw you little display on TV. Brother you got something to say? I am right here. Let Kross say, as a shoot, everything he wants to say. And bro can you imagine if Triple H goes at that time, you know what, I got every right, the way you just spoke to me, I got every right to fire you right here right now. But I am not gonna do that, because that would be the easy way. What I am gonna do is, I am gonna fire your wife," Russo said. [3:30 onwards]
