Apollo Crews could really benefit from an alliance with Roman Reigns. He has been stuck at a spot for a very long time, where everyone knows his ability but nobody expects him to be a breakout star.

People thought the same thing about Jey Uso before he decided to feud with his cousin Roman Reigns and then team up with him, in the best storyline of the pandemic era. Anyone who gets the rub from Roman Reigns just ascends a step in the WWE hierarchy, because he's the best thing on sports entertainment television.

In fact, many have said that if Apollo Crews defeats Big E and becomes the Intercontinental Championship, everyone benefits. This is because it allows Big E to win the Royal Rumble match, and also helps Apollo Crews establish himself as a major heel character.

Roman Reigns vs. Big E at WrestleMania could be a money feud.
