WWE SmackDown Star Angry At Not Reaching Full Potential

SmackDown star Karrion Kross has given his candid thoughts on his position in WWE and says he “gets really p*ssed” at not achieving his full potential yet.

Karrion Kross – along with his wife Scarlett – was one of the first WWE Superstars previously released on the watch of Vince McMahon to return to the company with Triple H in charge.

Kross had made a big splash in NXT during his first run in the promotion but since returning he has had to take somewhat of a back seat on SmackDown.

Speaking on Superstar Crossover, Karrion Kross addressed his current status in the company and admits he gets angry about not reaching his full potential yet:

“This is probably unhealthy, and I shouldn’t say it, but I’m just gonna say it. I actually get really p*ssed, because it’s not enough. It’s not enough. I haven’t reached my full potential yet and people haven’t seen my best work yet. I know what I can do, and at this level, you need to be afforded certain types of opportunities, which is difficult with a big roster and only two hours of the program.”

“And I know that once I am afforded that particular shot — because I’ve been afforded a lot, let’s not get it twisted — once I am afforded that particularly shot to demonstrate what I can really do, what I’ve done where people on a major scale haven’t seen it? People are gonna be blown away. And I’m gonna fight for that every single week, to get closer and closer to that shot. And I’m being straight with you, I’m being very real.”

Kross added that fans should expect some great storytelling if he’s given time to get a response out of them:

“I think you’re gonna be able to expect compelling storytelling. If I am granted and allotted the time to romance the audience and ‘Shakespeare’ them into what it is that I am very good at doing, which is laying down the foundations of eliciting an emotional response to get people interested in what we’re doing? You’re gonna see some great storytelling.”

“And one of my jobs that I have kind of given to myself is to help fans see different layers of people that maybe they haven’t seen before that I’m gonna be working with. I like to put people in different situations and circumstances that perhaps they hadn’t been in prior to working with me. So that’s what they’re gonna get.”
