It may be a Paul Heyman thing, but Apollo Crews has never felt this interesting in WWE. The athletic powerhouse has constantly impressed in the ring, with barely any evolution in his character. That is set to change, following the start of a feud with Big E over the Intercontinental Championship and an intense promo from Heyman on Talking Smack.

The biggest sign that Crews might be subject to a push is the fact that he was present in Roman Reigns' locker room a few weeks ago. He could end up turning heel and winning the IC Title after some help from The Tribal Chief.

It's about time WWE put some effort into making Apollo Crews an interesting WWE Superstar and the fact that it is happening on SmackDown lends some belief that it may actually be followed through. Vince McMahon should be impressed by Crews every time he gets enough time to shine in the ring.

A heel turn would be perfect for his WWE career, especially if the WWE Superstar aligns with Roman Reigns. The best-case scenario for Apollo Crews is that he becomes a part of Reigns' group and walks into WrestleMania as the Intercontinental Champion.
