Booker T: Karrion Kross Would Have Been A Great Fit For the WWE Attitude Era Roster

Kross has moved permanently to Raw

Booker T believes recent changes to Karrion Kross' character will diminish his standing, saying he would have easily been one of the biggest stars in WWE during the Attitude Era.

Kross, portrayed as an unbeatable harbinger of the apocalypse on NXT, has seen his gimmick altered to include an attire that is part gladiator, part Mad Max on Monday Night Raw. The previously undefeated former NXT Champion has also suffered losses to Jeff Hardy and Keith Lee since joining the main roster. 

Speaking on his Hall Of Fame Podcast, Booker T said: "Everybody wants to have a chance of being part of that experience; that WrestleMania thing, every one should want that. 

"But, at the same time, I can only imagine if I knew I was ready to breakout and, you know...I look at Karrion Kross and I've always said, 'Man, this guy, he's a grown-ass man. He's a throwback.' He's a guy that would've easily sat at the table with the giants of the Attitude Era and people would've looked at this guy and said, 'Wow, he's the real deal.'

"To chip away from that and take anything away from that is definitely not the route I would go."
