Karrion Kross Says WWE Tried To Lower His Value Before Contract Talks

TLDR

Karrion Kross claims that WWE veterans warned him that Vince McMahon would be uncomfortable with his star status from NXT and would deliberately present him with bad creative ideas to damage his confidence before contract negotiations. Kross says WWE offered him a new contract during what he considered the lowest point of his television presentation, which he believes confirmed the veterans' warnings about the company trying to lower his value for financial reasons.
