It's a shame what happened to Apollo Crews, especially since this has been the best few weeks of his WWE career. We've seen him get opportunities before but he's a Superstar who has never risen to the occasion despite having the tools to do so.

He picked up momentum after moving to RAW post-WrestleMania, narrowly losing to Aleister Black in an incredibly close contest before beating WWE legend MVP a week later to qualify for the Money in the Bank ladder match.

Last week, he teamed up with fellow-MITB contestants Rey Mysterio and Aleister Black in a victorious effort against Zelina Vega's trio of Andrade, Angel Garza, and Austin Theory. Crews pinned the United States Champion, setting up a title match for later that night.

While he came close, a knee injury forced the referee to stop the contest, giving the win to Andrade on a technicality. Crews was heartbroken backstage when walking in crutches, refusing to give an interview.

It's going to be interesting to see what the fallout of the entire situation is. Will Crews return? Will Andrade rub salt on the wound? One thing is for sure - the two of them are far from done with each other.
