Karrion Kross: If WWE Asked, I Would Agree To Face Randy Orton At WrestleMania 41 In A Heartbeat

Karrion Kross would agree to face Randy Orton at WWE WrestleMania 41 in a heartbeat.

Unfortunately, Kevin Owens suffered a neck injury that will require surgery, and as a result, he can no longer face Randy Orton at WrestleMania 41. This means one of the most decorated performers in WWE history is now without an opponent at the biggest show of the year.

During an interview with Bill Pritchard of WrestleZone, Karrion Kross said that he feels gutted for Kevin Owens and acknowledged fans' organic desire to see him do something meaningful at WrestleMania. He doesn't know what will happen, but he says he would love to face Randy Orton in his home of Las Vegas.

“I’m still really upset hearing about what happened to Kevin. I was kind of hoping he was going to pop out of a box and be like, ‘Gotcha!’ I was really hoping that was going to happen. And then, I wouldn’t even have been mad that he worked us all. But I don’t think that is the case.

“I don’t know who Randy’s opponent is going to be. But, if they asked me, I’d do it in a heartbeat,” Kross said. “That would be crazy if that happened in Las Vegas. That’s where I got my break, and that’s really still very much my home.”

Before he can think about WrestleMania, Kross has to face AJ Styles on the go-home episode of Raw before the big event in Vegas.
