Fans Mock Karrion Kross for Wearing New Gear With Suspenders on WWE Raw
Follow Us
WWE Raw Superstar Karrion Kross appeared on Raw: August 23rd, 2021 to take on Ricochet. However, it’s not the match that had fans talking about him, but his new in-ring gear.
The former NXT Champion was seen showcasing a leather strap gear coupled with a mask, making it oddly similar to Lord Humongous from Continental Wrestling Association in 1984. WWE went with red and black, probably to keep in touch with Raw’s signature colour.
However, it may not have been the best choice for in-ring gear because the WWE fans have resorted to mocking it rather than appreciating it.

The WWE Universe reacts to the new gear
While some fans have accepted that this is a process, and Kross will rise to the top on WWE Raw, others are convinced that a gear is a crucial part of the character, and WWE has ruined Kross.
It takes away from Kross. He’s supposed to be intimidating period. This would be alright for a WM one off but to have him do this on Raw…. What’s the point?

Why TF do WWE ruin everyone’s character?! TF is that helmet?!

This what happens when you were built up so well in NXT. Then boom main roster ready to make you into a fool. 😂 Lol this is exactly why no one wants someone as special as Adam Cole to join the main roster.

What the hell has Vince done

Why does Vince hate this mutha so much?? 😂 First they take away Scarlett, then they strip him of his NXT cool, now this weird makeover?? Maybe it's because he came from the indies, maybe it's because he was trained by Disco Inferno, but something's pissed someone off 😂

It’s unknown if this will be Karrion Kross’ new attire for the long-term. However, it’s unlikely that the company will change his gear all over again!

When Kross first arrived on WWE Raw, he was still the WWE NXT Champion. Therefore, it was known he would drop the title to someone on NXT before working on a proper feud on Raw.

The company built a storyline between Kross, Samoa Joe, and General Manager William Regal. It showed Kross going out of control and Joe confronting William Regal about the same. However, Regal told Joe he would take care of it. Unfortunately for Regal, the former champion had a mind of his own, and attacked Regal instead of listening to him.
They cut an entire segment where Samoa Joe was waiting for Karrion Kross to arrive at NXT, but when he arrived, he did not come to the arena. Instead, he left after attacking William Regal, claiming he will do what he wants, when he wants!
