#4 Apollo Crews celebrates his Intercontinental Championship victory on WWE SmackDown
Apollo Crews turned heel on WWE SmackDown earlier this year and embraced a new gimmick that pays respects to his Nigerian heritage. He challenged Big E for the Intercontinental Championship at WrestleMania 37. After a grueling match, Big E looked close to defending his title before a monstrous figure (Dabba Kato) emerged from the audience and entered the ring.
The latter then attacked Big E and helped Crews in winning the championship. He is now expected to celebrate his victory on WWE SmackDown, and he could also reveal more about his newest ally. There’s no report about Kato possibly continuing under the same ring name. In either case, Crews will use this equation to his advantage on the Blue brand.

We could see Big E demand a WrestleMania rematch since Crews never got a clean win. They can engage in a feud until the next pay-per-view, WrestleMania Backlash. The New Day member might spend a little more time in the United States Championship picture before setting his sights on Roman Reigns’ Universal title on WWE SmackDown.
