My Take
Heel work is, to me, the most underrated craft in wrestling, and Kross seems to understand that better than most. The menace, the slow-burn presence, the way a big New York-born frame can fill a room before the bell even rings, that is real performance, not just athleticism. I respect how he carved out his own lane, building a name as Karrion Kross in WWE and then climbing to the top as MLW World Heavyweight Champion on his own terms. Strength alone bores a crowd; atmosphere is what lingers. He has that in spades, and I am genuinely curious how far his presence can take him.
