Scarlett On If She’s Talked to WWE Since Leaving, Killer Kross on WWE Not Valuing What He’s Done

During a recent interview with Insight with Chris Van Vliet, former WWE Superstars Killer Kross and Scarlett discussed if they have talked with WWE since leaving, feeling like WWE didn’t value them, and more. Below are some highlights from Insight:

Scarlett on if she’s talked to WWE since leaving: “They did call me the next day (after they called Killer Kross), and it was very strange, because they were like, ‘Oh, I’m sure you know what’s going on with Kevin’. And I’m like, ‘All right, you’re talking about what happened with him, sure, but what’s going on with my contract? You’re only talking about him.’ And they said, ‘Well, we’re gonna let your contract lapse.’ I’m like, okay, that’s totally fine. I’m sure everything’s gonna work out. We love working there so, you know, the lines open if you guys ever want to call us. And then he goes, ‘Yeah, you know, the lines both open both ways. I know you guys had a great relationship with Nick Khan and Hunter. You should definitely call them.’ And I was like, wait, what does what does that mean?”

Kross on WWE not wanting to value things he’s done such as book sales: “Yes, at one point I wanted him to be able to explain to me whether, for instance, the book sales, it’s my life story, where is that on all of this? Forbes wrote an article that we were the top seller in the company for the merchandise. He didn’t want to look at any of that. Didn’t want to discuss any of that. He’s telling me that’s irrelevant to the conversation in determining my value, that’s crazy. My life story is about a kid in the audience of their shows growing up, wanting to be a part of the show, getting into the show, and writing a book about how was part of the show. And now he’s telling me that’s irrelevant? What is the statement here? Nothing I’ve done over the last three years is relevant to the conversation? The book that they’re making money off of my life story is irrelevant to the conversation? And you’re asking me to agree to a figure with a statement like that attached to it? Anybody with any sort of dignity or self-respect is not going to say, You know what that sounds like a really good deal to me. Like there were just red flags all over the entire conversation. And I asked him, ‘Are our bosses aware of what you’re saying?’ He’s like, ‘Oh yeah, yeah, they’re aware of it.’ But I have no reason not to believe you can’t be lying to me on the phone. So when he says you have a great relationship with them, you should call them. Well, what more is there to talk about when you tell somebody that all of this stuff to track in terms of performance and your value to the company is irrelevant? What the hell are we talking about?”

Scarlett on feeling stuck in WWE: “It’s this feeling that no matter how much hard work you put in, whether or not your promos are good, whether or not your matches are good, whether or not you sell merchandise, it doesn’t matter. At the end of the day, you’re only this number that they choose for you, and it doesn’t matter what, how it’s determined, but there’s nothing you can do to improve your situation. It’s like getting hired an office where, you know, you’re hoping one day that you’re gonna get that raise and, you know, be in a better position, but they say, No, this is what it’s gonna be forever. Doesn’t matter how hard you work. But it’s kind of that feeling.”
