Karrion Kross says Logan Paul pitched for Kross' involvement in his match at WrestleMania 41.
Karrion Kross recalls Logan Paul pushing for his involvement in his WrestleMania 41 match.
At WrestleMania 41, AJ Styles and Logan Paul would meet in singles action at the event. In the leadup to the bout, Kross would repeatedly tell Styles about how much he needed to defeat Paul. This story would leak into the match with Paul at WrestleMania 41, as Kross would get involved, leading to AJ pushing back violently against Kross’ pushing. In the end, Paul would defeat Kross at the event.
While speaking to The Masked Man Show, Kross spoke about the build up to Styles’ bout with Paul and how Paul pushed for his involvement at WrestleMania 41.
“I think there was something we could have done with Logan before he moved on to some other stuff. I was born in 85. I didn’t necessarily grow up with younger generations like they did with Logan Paul. I don’t know a lot about him outside of my interactions with him. I like the guy, have always liked the guy. My wife thinks he’s great and he’s always been kind to us. One thing that I thought was awesome that he did was, he is somebody who actually pushed for me to be involved with the match with him and AJ at WrestleMania. I found out only a few hours before that I was actually going to do it. I thought that was really cool that he did that. When I saw him the next day, I made sure he knew. I went up and shook his hands and said, ‘Thank you. I know you said something because somebody told me.’ He was very cool about it. I was hoping we were going to work towards that.”
Kross recently spoke about his WWE exit, noting that he hopes to renegotiate with the company in January. You can read more about that here.
