This feels like the first time he's had like, an actual character in....like his entire WWE/NXT career. hey he had... that's a gimmick! >_>

In the entire time he's been there, I only remember the following:
- Debuting at TakeOver, saying "wow, that's a lot of people!" and doing a crazy looking backflip during the match. - Debuting on the main roster, moving to Smackdown and having one match against Miz for the IC title. - Titus Worldwide, whenever they were actually booked. - This recent run with Big E
That's it. For a dude who's only been there almost 6 years now, I should be able to remember a lot more than that.

Only other thing was his feud with Breeze in NXT where Breeze challenged him for Takeover and them just having good matches with other opponents for weeks so when the match came around, you actually wanted to see what would happen when they did face off and it worked.

I'd actually forgotten about the Apollo/Hurt Business feud. Thanks for that

Pair him with Prince Nana. And don’t be like Nana was from Ghana, how can he be from Nigeria now? This is the same company that had the iron sheik, from Iran, pretend to be from Iraq for a bit,
Also this is just me wanting Nana in the WWE

If this were the attitude era, they’d be bringing in five local strippers every week to be his “wives”.

Welp. I’m eating my words. That was the promo of his career and he had a stellar night. I dunno who brought that out of him (Heyman?) but they deserve a raise. Excited to see where this goes.

Apollo Crews is a first generation American born from Nigerian parents. He's likely heard the accent he was putting on for his entire life. Any comparisons to Kamala are really off.

Unless he wrestles the Great Power Uti, no buys.

Of course after I called him a geek a week ago, WWE’s all of a sudden decided to give him a character and make him interesting.
Very talented and athletic wrestler, but he had no personality before this. Hope it goes well for him.

Hell yeah! he's an hidden gem. It's always nice to see someone getting a new & defined character
Hope he wins the MITB and paints it in Nigerian flag colors

Fantastic promo. I can’t believe it took 5 plus years for him to finally find a character but hope it works for him.
