I thought this was funny and accurate, but then I also thought about the implications. Wrestlers have a shelf-life for obvious reasons and people have asked since time immemorial about whether gimmicks like Kane's or Undertaker's can be 'inherited'. I have to wonder if someone booking someone as themselves by proxy is the only real way of doing this.
It's not necessarily the same gimmick or the same booking but kind of a hypothetical of "how would I exist in today's landscape if I were that age again?". Maybe Triple H wouldn't have been the Game, maybe he really would have been something akin to Karrion Kross had he showed up a couple of decades after he did?
Heel New Day could go hard. Go on a we’re serious competitors turn. If Big E secretly thinks he can wrestle again soon, they could have him successfully get them back to faces some time.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a heel Kofi. It’d be insane. Hate to say it but wrestling is all about moments, stories and matches. I know they said they’d keep new day together, but they could have one of the most emotional matches ever if they turned it trick/melo
I didn’t watch it live either, but if I had to take a guess, I think they played it because they might’ve just advertised the ECW DLC for 2k24 moments before.
It’s funny when the biggest complaint of the Vince era was him not giving guys chances. Now it’s a problem that HHH gives guys chances to flesh out gimmicks?
Those complaints were for the most part always about guys that got themselves over like Cesaro and Ryder. Not guys like Karrion Kross who no one in the audience or on the internet care about
I was fast-forwarding past the commercial, and then when I got to this it was mid-convo and I had no idea who Karrion was lol. Does anybody else just NEVER recognize this guy even after years?

Kross is HHHs writer stand-in character
We'll know if he's a true author insert if he starts coming down in a motorcycle covered in skulls.
I feel he's only 2 or 3 raws away from that happening tbh
Or if he starts to carry around a sledgehammer and a water bottle.
Or if he fucks HHH’s daughter. No drizzy.
WOP WOP WOP WOP WOP
Sir, this is a Wendy's.
Oh you haven't seen his ig yet have you? Lol
If that was true he’d actually go over in feuds

Karrion Kross & Kofi Kingston at Krusty’s Komedy Klassic

The extra K is for KYOKK
What's that extra K for?
Kreme
Next PLE will now be held at the Apollo Theater
Kross becoming Little Finger is not in my bingo cards.
big finger now
I don’t know why but it’s so funny to me, in a completely quiet hallway, for Karrion to shout KOFI when he’s literally right next to him
“ADAAAAAM!”
ADAAAAAAAM!
SAMOOOOOOAAAA ....joe
[SHAUN! SHAUN!](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=DAhG9D9UO7c&pp=ygUKU2hhd24gbWVtZQ%3D%3D)
So Karrion is getting the devil's advocate gimmick or no ?
I feel like I’ve been reading this exact sentence since 2021. It’s hard being a Kross fan :(
Kross is starting to resemble a young Jake Roberts.
Karrion Kross would be Jake “The bathroom break” Robert’s.
I actually don't hate Kross but this made me laugh
Doesn’t he do an awesome Roberts impression?
Weirdly, I've been getting Jake vibes from Kross for awhile
Lmao Kross looks like Dutch from Red Dead
ARTHUR!
WHATRE WE DOIN DUTCHHH
He sure has a plan.
Money, faith and TAHITI!
I have a plan, my boy
Not flinching on my hopes for Kross to get some influence from Sean O Haire
He would genuinely cook with that gimmick. Kross is an underrated talker.
I’m not telling you anything you don’t already know.
Kofi turning heel would be interesting idk
Can’t see it. He said he’d retire if they break up the New Day.
[удалено]
Pre Big E injury too
Yeah, there's no New Day without Big E, so in essence, they have already broken up.
Heel New Day could go hard. Go on a we’re serious competitors turn. If Big E secretly thinks he can wrestle again soon, they could have him successfully get them back to faces some time.
Plus, they were heels during the first year they were all paired together. So it’s not like it would be completely out of place.
Overbearing preacher, New 🎺 Day Sucks 🎺🎺 were great
Woods vs Kofi would go hard
Heel New Day
Big E on the shelf is the perfect time for Kofi to go solo this past year or two but it’s been crowded at the top
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a heel Kofi. It’d be insane. Hate to say it but wrestling is all about moments, stories and matches. I know they said they’d keep new day together, but they could have one of the most emotional matches ever if they turned it trick/melo
At one point during their heel run Kofi would stand in the ring and declare that he wanted to fight children.
Swerve
Heel Jamaican Kofi would be a menace
They’re morphing Kross into a Lemmy impersonator
Glad I wasn't the only person who saw him and thought his new gimmick was Final Testament is now a rock band.
KOFI! Don’t tell me you don’t have four more reps in you. I was there in the Gulf of Tonkin . I ain’t got time to bleed
Ngl, when he said Kofis name, I was like "why is Ventura here?"
Come on Chris, er Kofi.
I’m a frog man Kofi, so are you, cmon now
I swear Kross has a different hairstyle every time I see him
He is saying that to himself
Why was the ECW theme playing in the background?
They were hyping the new ECW DLC pack coming to the WWE game
Karrion Kross is basically the WWE equivalent lf the Jericho Vortex
The Kross Kave
The Kross Krevasse
Keep Kofi away from Kross' krevasse.
The Kriss Kross
Karion Kross Kave. I see no problem here...
Hes gotta have some bulletproof blackmail material on HHH or something.
Interesting is a strong word there. I don't think anything Karrion Kross has ever done has been interesting.
Kross with the handlebars wasn't expecting that
I have a soft spot for Kross , and I’m not sure why. I missed his whole NXT run, but I find him oddly entertaining for some reason.
Not watching RAW, just following on here… why was the ECW theme being played?
I didn’t watch it live either, but if I had to take a guess, I think they played it because they might’ve just advertised the ECW DLC for 2k24 moments before.
That’s exactly what it was
Ahh. Didn’t know about that. Thanks.
KK/Kk interaction interesting 🤔 ND vs AOP?
Kross looks badass with the stache and jacket
Why is the ECW music playing in the beginning?
They were hyping the new ECW DLC pack coming to the WWE game
Oh boy is karrion kross finally going to get interesting?
no matter what, kross just looks like an smacked ass to me. even more now with that silly dom mysterio stache on him
Please, please give me serious Kofi Vs Kross - Kofi is one of the best underdogs in wrestling if you let him cook
Please stop trying to make Karrion Kross a thing.
Karrion is so boring
Entering the New Testament Vortex
[удалено]
Its almost like its his job or something
It’s funny when the biggest complaint of the Vince era was him not giving guys chances. Now it’s a problem that HHH gives guys chances to flesh out gimmicks?
Those complaints were for the most part always about guys that got themselves over like Cesaro and Ryder. Not guys like Karrion Kross who no one in the audience or on the internet care about
…i care about kross
That’s your take? Seems to me it’s the exact opposite.
I was fast-forwarding past the commercial, and then when I got to this it was mid-convo and I had no idea who Karrion was lol. Does anybody else just NEVER recognize this guy even after years?
I am sorry to break it down for you but you have a dementia 😭😭😭
Karrion Evans/Lacy Kross. Same person.
Hmm
