Karrion Kross gets cryptic on YouTube.
Karrion Kross has always been good at spinning webs and wanting fans to know that there is more than meets the eye. In a new YouTube video, with all of the flash and flair expected from a Karrion Kross vignette, Kross told a story about his life living in Las Vegas and being inspired after watching people gamble and bet their lives away, despite knowing that the house was going to win.
Kross says he became inspired to become that inevitable chance that everything was going to slip away, causing those who take the risk to fade into obscurity. Kross says he became "the house," he became "the end."
"Well, well, well. There it is and here you are," he began. "If you're here, that means you were looking for this. You don't just find it by accident. This is a story you should have heard a long time ago. See, before I was involved in this business, I was involved with another one, and it took me here to Sin City. See, I always had this thing inside me. There it is again, you see it plain as day. See, I'm not crazy. I didn't know what that was, but it told me to leave home, which was very far away at the time, or so I thought. Well, that's exactly what I did. I found this gig, a job. All I had to do was keep an eye on people and if there were any issues, to take care of the issues. It was a good-paying job, but then I came to realize that money wasn't that important to me. Especially when the person paying me pissed me off.
"So I decided to move on to other things. I evolved past that home monetary thing," he added. "I needed to know what my deeper calling was and I began to watch gambling. I watched people lay their lives down on the table knowing the house was going to win. I watched people destroy themselves on the chance that things might get better, but they didn't. They absolutely did not. It inspired me. I said, 'I want to become that chance.' No, not the good one. I want to become the chance that everything fails and they lose everything and they fade out with less than they started with. I became 'the house.' I became 'the end.'
The video ended with a scream and the continued ticking of the Doomsday Clock that was alluded to at the start of the video.
Kross hasn't wrestled on television since losing to AJ Styles on the August 11 episode of WWE Friday Night SmackDown. He continues to wrestle on Live Events and his last loss came at the hands of Butch on the November 5 WWE SuperShow in Springfield, Massachusetts.
Kross returned to WWE in 2022 after being released by WWE in 2021.
