kross is a decent enough midcarder if you keep his matches under 15 minutes. Decent size and decent enough of the mic to carry a segment. Smarks are delusional begging for a push up the card though.

The point is to work you. And yes they will sell merch if fans think it’s their last change to snag it. But the fact is they promoted his book and heavily hinted at an incoming push. You’re too dense to pick up on nuance I get that, but this was telegraphed. Wrestling journalists and smarks are simply unsmart people.

This along with the fact that acting as though someone is on the chopping block usually creates interest in said person, as then you get the "internet backlash" which you can placate and profit off of by resigning the guy you planned to resign in the first place. The majority not recognizing this shows what retarded headspace smarks inhibit.

It’s literally to get people to talk about or be more invested the wrestler in question. The whole point is to work the fans, create buzz, and sell merch. It’s not about ticket sales. WWE never had to worry about ticket sales.

If Kross went out to the middle of the ring and said "First guy who meets me outside the arena gets a blowjob from my wife!" It would also excite the audience, and it would also lead nowhere, add nothing to his character, and make no sense.

No I don't think so. Sami won. He didn't get corrupted like everyone else. Even when he had the chance to cheat, he didn't and won the honorable way. He's on his way to the world championship now, and he'll be challenging as a babyface.
