Karrion Kross tries to plant some seeds of dissent within The Pride.
In recent months, Karrion Kross and Bobby Lashley have been feuding with each other, and the rivalry has turned into a war between The Final Testament and The Pride. On the March 8 episode of WWE SmackDown, the Authors of Pain (Akam and Rezar) attacked Lashley during his match against Kross, so Lashley won the match vis disqualification. Kross and the Authors of Pain then stood tall as they overwhelmed Lashley and the Street Profits (Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins).
In a SmackDown Exclusive, Karrion Kross shared his thoughts after the match and the beatdown. He suggested that Montez Ford should be the new leader of The Pride, as Lashley and Dawkins were holding him back.
“This was the desired outcome. Everybody’s so wound up around here. ‘Why, you have to win. I have to win the match, or the fans gonna cheer for me.’ Bobby’s obsessed with winning. Always has been. But lately, now he’s starting to make mistakes, and can you really afford to be making mistakes, Bobby, when you’re the leader of The Pride? You’re responsible for their careers. Now, yeah, you won, but how does it feel to win when you’re unconscious? Tell me, Bobby. Huh? Put it in black and white. I’ve got this man’s blood on my hands. I’m not the one who looks like a loser. Check out the ring. Check out the EMTs, medical. He’s the loser. I mean, hell, maybe The Pride needs a new leader. If it’s not gonna be me, I think it should be Montez Ford. He’s the new breakout star, but we all know he can’t do that when he’s dragging Dawkins, and Bobby’s not letting him be the best version of himself. I’m just saying what everybody’s thinking. Tick tock,” Kross said.
