The fan pointed out on Twitter that Kross adapts his hairstyle to mirror whichever opponent he’s attempting to manipulate, citing specific examples from recent storylines.

Notice how Karrion usually wears his hair the same way as whoever he’s trying to bring to the dark side? The half up half down with Sami, this with AJ Styles, just a little detail I’ve noticed. Maybe it’s to make the other person think that they’re similar and to give Karrion their trust? Whatever it is, it’s genius

Kross acknowledged the fan’s observations with a direct response that verified the intentional psychological tactic. “YOU are locked in. Well done,” Kross replied.

During a recent appearance on Geeking Out with Matt Serra, Kross also discussed his position within WWE’s current hierarchy when asked about push timelines.

I don’t know, and it’s such a dangerous question to answer, but I’ll try to. This is what I will say. I don’t envy the position of creative or booking the show, because you have this company and it’s worth billions, right? And you have public shareholders, and you don’t want to hire anything less than the best of the best.

Kross explained the complex structure of WWE’s talent positioning, comparing it to a film casting system with leads, supporting actors, and background roles.

So now you have a whole roster full of people that are incredible. I mean, some people, for a lack of better words, they get casted as background. Some people get casted as supporting actors, and then some people are the leads. Now, if you pay a lot of money out to the leads, those are going to be the people you’re really going to run with, and the rest of the cast and wrestling kind of supports the leads, right?

The Raw Superstar acknowledged that many supporting talents have main event potential, while expressing his own determination to maximize every opportunity given.

There are some people that are in the supporting actor, background or just background, that could be great leads. But you kind of have an obligation. Once you’ve casted certain people’s leads in the show, you have to run with them. And maybe they’re just trying to get the most out of their leads right now, but I don’t f**king give up. That’s not my f**king thing.
