Karrion Kross wants the world to know he’s not just some dark figure with an hourglass—he’s a mastermind playing the long game.
During his appearance on The Battleground Podcast, Kross didn’t hold back when the hosts brought up a popular fan theory that credited him with predicting the downfall of Roman Reigns’ Bloodline faction.
The discussion centered around a SmackDown segment where Kross flipped over his hourglass during a promo, something many later believed symbolized the ticking clock on the Bloodline’s future. When asked if he did it on purpose, Kross admitted it was no accident.
“Absolutely… I cultivated that. You know, and did that deliberately. No one’s going to tell me, ‘We don’t know what to do with you.’ Right? Nobody’s going to tell me that. You can do anything with this character. We could be anywhere doing anything at any time.”
Kross explained that he approached his character with intentional symbolism, crafting layers that fans might not catch until much later. His hourglass wasn’t just a prop—it was a signal of what was to come.
This revelation has people wondering: if WWE missed the depth of Kross’ vision, what else have they overlooked?
Kross clearly believes in the potential of his persona—and if his clues really did predict one of WWE’s most shocking storyline turns, maybe more people should start paying closer attention.
