10 Wrestlers Who Have Had Enough Of WWE's Sh*t

3. Karrion Kross

Karrion Kross is only two months into his main roster run but make no mistake, the big guy is done. Finished. Kaput. There can be no coming back from a horrendous anti-push that has stripped away everything that made him effective in NXT and replaced it with empty b*llocks.

Eating a banana skin loss to Jeff Hardy in night one, Kross has been robbed of his smoke and mirrors. Scarlett is gone as his manager for no apparent reason, immediately diminishing his act, and his ring entrance is no longer the big, bombastic spectacle it was in developmental. Now, Karrion Kwang wears bondage gear to the ring and cuts promos evoking Sean O'Haire's Devil's Advocate character and Hade bloody Vansen in between mundane, unengaging victories over Raw's biggest pin-eaters, to no effect whatsoever.

Kross' endeavours largely play out to dead silence. The audience has completely disconnected from a man whose weaknesses have been enhanced and his strengths hidden, which is the opposite of how effective pro wrestling presentation works.
