Crews was brought into NXT with tonnes of fanfare, and it looked like WWE was priming him for a big push. It didn't take long for that to get derailed, and Crews ended up facing a few losses at the hands of Baron Corbin while they were both in NXT.
The lack of direction continued when he came up to SmackDown Live, with a quick burst to show him off a bit that led to him disappearing from TV. Now he has the motivation and a reason to fight. Ziggler took out his friend and then attacked him too, and did it two weeks in a row.
If Apollo can deliver in the ring with Ziggler and show just a little bit of emotion when he speaks, it opens the door for him to start climbing back up the ladder that was pulled out from under him.

About the author
Nicholas A. Marsico
I got my first big break writing for 411Mania back in 2004. I did a small spot in a big weekly piece that was written by one of the site's top writers. I quickly added the duty of being the live recapper for episodes of SmackDown, and in 2005 was given my own weekly column, which I did for a few years. I gave up writing (mostly) to start a family but got back into it, still at 411, a little over 3 years later. For another couple of years, I wrote 2-3 columns per week for the website before finding paid work elsewhere, and eventually wound up at SportsKeeda.
I am also the co-founder of the RBR: Weekly Wrestling Talk podcast, which started in the summer of 2005 and is still going strong today, almost 15 years later. Due to school, work, and family commitments, I left the team in 2011 but still remain a part of the family.
