Karrion Kross, who along with his wife Scarlett is rumored to be out of a WWE contract this weekend, addressed his contract status while appearing on the The Two Man Power Trip of Wrestling Podcast.
Kross said that as of Thursday (yesterday when this was taped), he was still under a WWE contract and so was his wife.
“I don’t know where it’s coming from and I don’t care to speak to any of it,” Kross said regarding the rumors. “All I can tell you is the only way you’re going to get the real story is when you get it from me. That’s all I can tell you.”
Dave Meltzer of the Observer reported that WWE offered him and Scarlett a new deal and last weekend they were promoting his new book while Paul Heyman put him over really big during his appearance on the Ariel Helwani Show on Monday, suggesting that Kross is staying.
“I can’t really speak to any of the legitimacy of anything that is being recently reported, but I’ll tell you right now, everyone’s going to know exactly what’s going on very soon,” Kross continued.
Fans keep chanting his name at WWE events and his merchandise has skyrocketed to the top of the charts as Kross had an organic rise with fans similar to that of Steve Austin, Daniel Bryan, and Kofi Kingston, Paul Heyman said.
This whole thing started when Kross did a profanity-filled interview during an official WrestleMania stream online, becoming the talk of town – and online – that weekend.
