WWE Rumours: Vince McMahon unhappy with Apollo Crews

Has the lack of mic skills hindered Crews’ push?

Another story creeps up about Vince McMahon not being happy with NXT call-ups.

What’s new?

It’s well publicised that Vince McMahon is a hard sell when it comes to talent, and this current batch of NXT talents don’t seem to be making many inroads into his good books either.

The latest victim of his ire is apparently Apollo Crews, who impressed initially with his in-ring ability, but has failed to generate any real traction with the audience since his call-up to the main roster.

And according to dailywrestlingnews.com, his situation has gone from bad to worse as he’s received more backstage heat over botching spots in a recent match against Chris Jericho at an episode of Monday Night Raw.

Crews is an impressive physical specimen with an equally impressive moveset, but his main roster run just hasn’t quite clicked the way the WWE would like yet. And considering that he is working a program with a veteran like Sheamus, it certainly seems like Vince McMahon is expecting better output from Crews.
