5 Surprising WWE Rumors from this week you need to know (January 16th, 2019)

#4 WWE planning a push for Apollo Crews

Apollo Crews has been used so poorly that it seems he might never recover from it

Apollo Crews is one of those superstars who is held back in WWE despite having unbelievable athleticism and talent. Since making his debut on the main roster, he has been used poorly. But according to the recent rumor, things might change for the former Titus Worldwide member following the Royal Rumble PPV.

As per Mike Johnson of PW Insider Elite audio, "It seems that WWE wants to do something with Apollo Crews. Maybe he’s on a slow burn because he is going to enter the Royal Rumble. I feel like there’s a lot more potential to him and I worry that they’ve kind of used him so poorly that he’s never going to recover.”

Therefore, maybe this can explain why Crews won the recent 'Fresh Start Battle Royal' a few weeks back on Raw to get a shot at Dean Ambrose' Intercontinental Championship.

Though Apollo didn't win the title, if WWE is seriously planning on pushing him then they should go with it carefully as since making his debut, Crews has been used so poorly that it seems he might never recover from it. The only thing he can do to catch WWE Universe's attention is pulling out something amazing and unexpected.
