We often ask ourselves why Apollo Crews isn't a much bigger star. He has the physique and certainly the in-ring ability to be one of the best in the entire roster, doesn't he?
And then you hear him cut a promo backstage and you're reminded where he's sorely lacking. The promo that he cut with Drake Maverick and Rezar was so devoid of any expression or emotion, it was almost like a robot reading lines out from a teleprompter or a cue card.

As much as I don't like to put Crews down because of his innate ability and the fact that he can perform extraordinary feats in the ring at any given time, I have to call this a worst and I know you guys agree with me. I just hope that he puts in some work into developing his overall character.
He was called up too soon from NXT. There is literally no other explanation.
