5. His love for professional wrestling
Apollo Crews said in an interview that the first wrestling match he saw was The Undertaker taking on The Ultimate Warrior. Ironically, two giants of WWE were the ones to usher this giant of a man to love professional wrestling. Crews had noted how awed he was watching these two larger-than-life legends wrestle.
Like many of the wrestlers in WWE, to become a WWE wrestler was Apollo Crews’ dream. As with many wrestlers, Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock were the reasons for him to fall in love with wrestling. But it was the olympic gold medalist Kurt Angle who inspired him to pursue the dream of becoming a professional wrestler.
Apollo Crews is a big fan of Kurt Angle’s work in WWE. He was influenced with Kurt’s work so much that he laced up his boots to become a professional wrestler. Facing Kurt Angle is Apollo Crews’ dream. Personaly, I would love to see that dream match for the various reversals the match would employ.
