5 Reasons why Bobby Lashley won the United States Championship at WWE Payback

#1 WWE needed a reason to give Apollo Crews an attitude adjustment

Apollo Crews needs to hit the next gear

For those that didn't see the match at WWE Payback, after The Hurt Business set up for a photoshoot, Apollo Crews attacked Bobby Lashley from behind. Now, though MVP and Shelton Benjamin were near ringside, they didn't really interfere in the match, and Crews went after Bobby Lashley out of pure frustration.

Apollo Crews has been putting on a smile and continuously getting one over The Hurt Business. He wasn't able to do that tonight, and it sparked something in Crews. The former WWE United States Champion was angry. He was downright miffed. It's thanks to this that we could very well see a new Apollo Crews in the coming months.

His confidence had evolved into arrogance as of late. Now, Apollo Crews needs to make some changes in order to get back his WWE US Championship. What does that mean? What will we see emerge from Apollo Crews going forward? It's hard to say, but considering what happened following the match tonight, Crews has a bad side, and it might be just what he needs to elevate himself to the next level.
