Karrion Kross recently shared one of his creative ideas during a detailed discussion about his exit from WWE. He talked about his experience working with Triple H after WrestleMania and how his loyalty to the company sometimes worked against him.
In his talk, Kross revealed some of the unique pitches he made that never came to fruition. One of these involved the design of a shirt inspired by the concept of injustice. Being a huge Metallica fan, he created a design featuring a scar and a blindfold representing judgment.
The shirts now sold at WWE outlets display phrases like "faith for the fallen" and "There’s nothing we do. Everything is guilty, and the hand of time determines judgment." Kross explained that before the Judgment Day faction was established, he had pitched a group centered around the theme of judgment.
He said, “Judgment Day was something I was pitching—a group focusing on people who have done wrong. The predictions were based on judgment, and the quote on the shirt is what we all would say. It ended up just as a shirt design, but it’s one of my favorites. There are original black versions too, which makes them special.”
Kross also led a faction known as The Final Will in WWE, which included authors of Pain (AOP) and Paul Ellering. They even faced Bobby Lashley’s faction at WrestleMania 40, though the group disbanded after AOP and Ellering were released from their contracts.
Fan Take: This insight into Karrion Kross’s creative vision highlights the depth of talent and storytelling WWE superstars bring behind the scenes. For WWE fans, it underscores missed opportunities in character development that could have added compelling layers to WWE storylines and factions.
