The biggest problem with Kross is his whole deal is being a monster, and he's not going to look impressive physically in WWE. Dave pointed out that even Logan Paul is taller than Kross on WOR last night/this morning, so it's going to be tough for him.
I 100% this is the message Hunter is trying to send to talent. Between this and bringing Dakota Kai and Io (excuse me, IYO) to the main roster, he seems to be wanting to show folks he's going to try to give a shot to people who got screwed by the prior regime.
