Karrion Kross refuses to change appearance for WWE

newsweek.com

A WWE Superstar shared that the company asked him to change his appearance for a storyline. Karrion Kross, the wrestler involved, recently spoke about this on the DeFalco Files Podcast. Kross was jokingly asked if he would shave his head to support a benefit show for fellow wrestler Chris Bey. This event, called "Beynefit," will take place on March 23 in Las Vegas and includes many big names like Swerve Strickland and Ricochet. In his response, Kross mentioned that WWE executive Paul "Triple H" Levesque would likely not approve of him returning to TV with a shaved head. Kross also shared that there were talks about using his hair loss in a storyline, but the timing didn't work out. He had grown his hair intending to donate it to charity for children with hair loss. Kross emphasized the need for proper timing when making such donations. In the meantime, he made a generous contribution to ensure the charity felt supported. Kross humorously dismissed the idea of shaving his head for the benefit show. He also referenced his past as a bald wrestler during his time in TNA and early WWE, when he was the NXT Champion. Kross's on-screen confrontations with AJ Styles have been notable, with their latest happening on March 17.
