Apollo Crews, in my opinion, is a very underrated talent. The guy can do some serious action inside the ring and amaze fans with his athleticism. But his current good guy gimmick isn't helping him much, as I don't see him even winning a mid-card title with his current gimmick.

A heel turn, combined with getting a new manager would be amazing for Crews, as it would add that feel of danger in his character, something that would make fans start taking him seriously.


#1 Kevin Owens

How long before he says "that's enough!"

Kevin Owens surprisingly returned as a face after months of being out-of-action. Fans were quite amazed to see him as a face, but soon we've all started missing the ruthless heel that Kevin was.

I'm not saying that his face turn is a fail, but there's just something in Kevin that makes him a natural heel. His recent stints with The New Day felt like a build-up to a heel turn, and while it did not happen last week, I have a feeling it can happen tonight.

Remember how Owens turned on Sami in NXT? He could pull that off again, this time on Kofi Kingston. We still don't know who Kofi's first challenger would be, but he has had quite a few interactions with Kevin in the last few months.

Which wrestler on SmackDown do you think needs a gimmick change/character turn more than anyone else? Do let me know in the comments section.
