Jealousy Allegedly Behind Controversial Booking Of Popular WWE Star

Could jealousy really be playing a part in the current booking of a popular WWE star?

The future of Karrion Kross in WWE has been making headlines for several months. Kross went viral for his foul-mouthed rant after missing out on a spot at WrestleMania 41 in favour of a TNA-contracted star.

Since then, fan support for Kross has swelled, but his opportunities on-screen have been negligible at best. Kross recently lost to Sami Zayn at Night of Champions after tormenting Zayn backstage for months. But with suggestions that Karrion Kross’ WWE contract is near its end, could there be another reason that the company isn’t backing him?

Speaking on Coach & Bro, former WWE writer Vince Russo claimed that jealousy on the part of Triple H could be hindering Kross’ current booking:
