“What was the internet set ablaze for?”

This past week on WWE RAW, NXT Champion Karrion Kross brought his undefeated streak to the red brand and lost to Jeff Hardy in under two minutes. But WWE Hall of Famer Booker T doesn’t see a problem with this choice.

On a recent episode of his Hall of Fame Podcast, Booker T expressed his confusion about the fans’ frustration following Kross’ loss to Hardy.

“What was the internet set ablaze for?” Booker T asked. “It’s not about the match most of the time, it’s about the story. Karrion Kross is a guy who’s the NXT Champion and undefeated down in NXT. Losing to Jeff Hardy in a match that everybody in the world thought Kross making his debut is a match that he’s supposed to win, but Hardy stole a match from Kross. When [WWE are] doing this, [they’re] doing it for a reason. You gotta understand what the reason is opposed to just trying to analyze it and think you know exactly the way it should have gone because you didn’t get what you thought you should’ve got at that moment.”
