7 Ups & 7 Downs From WWE Raw (Sept 13)
3. Karrion O’Haire
Did WWE deliberately have Karrion Kross use a tagline that Sean O’Haire used to use way back in 2003?
Kross delivered a rambling backstage promo, clearly reading a prompter off-screen as he talked about insatiable suffering, a lack of empathy, no motives or goals – other than to hurt everyone – and that he won’t get lost in the shuffle. Oh, and everyone will fall and pray.
This is what amounts to “character development” in today’s WWE: long-winded promos that people either can’t or don’t care to understand or follow substituting for actual personality. How does that promo make Kross stand out? How does it help him connect with the audience. No one talks like that.
It’s just another typical overwriting job by some failed TV writer who was probably fired from a daytime soap or cable drama and is trying to show off their chops here.
