This guy just can't seem to catch a break. Coming into the WWE, Apollo Crews was touted as possibly being the next big thing. His work in the global indie scene was exceptionally impressive.
Known then as Uhaa Nation, he was one of the top free agents in the entire world. However, once he was signed, it just seemed as if no one had any interest in his WWE development.

While in NXT, Apollo struggled to find his place on the tremendously deep roster. Once he was elevated to the main roster, there was once again hope and while he has occasionally shown signs of having a good run, things could certainly be better for Crews.

With the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal, this could be a very significant win for Apollo.
While this match may not be very important to some, it could prove to be a catalyst for greater things to come for Apollo Crews, if he gets the win.

Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
