WWE Superstar Karrion Kross has confirmed that his changing hairstyles are not just for show but part of an intentional psychological tactic aimed at manipulating his opponents. A fan on Twitter pointed out that Kross often mirrors the hairstyle of his storyline targets, suggesting this was a deliberate strategy to make his opponents feel a sense of similarity and trust. Kross, acknowledging the fan’s insight, responded with a simple but confirming message: “YOU are locked in. Well done.”
This hair-switching tactic aligns with Kross’ darker, manipulative persona, with each look reflecting his ability to get into the heads of his adversaries. For instance, Kross has worn his hair in a half-up, half-down style when targeting wrestlers like Sami Zayn, as well as other distinct styles to match different rivals like AJ Styles.
In a separate interview on Geeking Out with Matt Serra, Kross opened up about WWE’s complex talent hierarchy. Drawing comparisons to a film set, he explained how WWE’s roster is divided into roles similar to a movie’s cast: leads, supporting actors, and background players. Kross acknowledged that while some wrestlers are cast as supporting characters, many have the potential to step into lead roles. He expressed his drive to make the most out of every opportunity, regardless of where he stands in the company’s current structure, firmly stating that he would never give up.
This combination of strategic hairstyling and determination highlights Kross’ commitment to his craft and his desire to make a lasting impact in WWE.
