Karrion Kross doesn’t want to be a part of WWE’s black-and-yellow brand forever.
The WWE NXT Champion made this fact clear during his appearance at the NXT TakeOver: In Your House Global Press Conference held on Saturday by WWE to promote Sunday night’s live special on the WWE Network on Peacock.
While promoting his WWE NXT Championship defense in the scheduled Fatal-5-Way main event of the aforementioned special event scheduled for 6/13, which also includes Adam Cole, Kyle O’Reilly, Johnny Gargano and Pete Dunne, Kross made some interesting comments.
The top dog on the WWE NXT brand claimed three things:
- * He never plans on losing the title
* He doesn’t plan on being in NXT forever
* He claims everyone will find out the third on Sunday
Featured below is an excerpt from Karrion Kross’ appearance at the NXT TakeOver: In Your House Global Press Conference where the WWE NXT Champion made these comments.
“I’m not a very big fan of undermining people’s intelligence. I don’t think that’s really something anyone in this business should put on themselves. I think the WWE Universe [and] NXT fans should decide who the greatest will be, in due time. But I will tell you this, I don’t plan on ever losing this title.
“That’s number one. Number two; I don’t plan on staying in NXT forever. Number three; find out on Sunday. These guys are showing up. I’m showing up. I’m planning to beat the shit out of all four of them. I’m leaving with this, that’s my game plan. Why? Because it’s personal.“
