On the RAW after Wrestlemania, the biggest Raw of the year, we saw several debuts and the least impactful one was that of Apollo Crews who basically won a squash match.
Since then, Crews has followed the zame routine of having quick matches and minimal mic time.
While Crews is one of the best athletes on the main roster right now and has moves in his arsenal that not many can pull off with the ease which he can...why was he called up?
Apollo spent very little time in WWEs development brand, NXT and I think fast tracking him to the main roster really damaged him.
Crews is not ready to be on the main roster. He only has one part of being a good performer down perfect and thats the wrestling ability. I don't see how he cuts good promos or has a good character which would allow him to be on the roster right now.
You can say that a guy like Baron Corbin has little experience in Wrestling but he has a big feud already but thats because Corbin has a little bit of everything. He can have good matches, cut decent promos and best of all he is tremendous in his character.
Apollo Crews is just a great athletic guy who has jo character and smiles way too much.
I think 6 more months or maybe even a year down in NXT could have done wonders for Apollo. I believe that had he stayed down there and come up later he would have been able to debut against a guy like Sheamus and be fully ready for anything.
With the way things are going right now, I just see Apollo Crews reaching a few IC runs at most..
What do you guys think will happen with Crews in his career? Who will his first feud be? Will he ever be a top guy?
