I bet 20 internet dollars that his finisher will either be called the "Crews Control", the "Crews Missile" or the "Apollo Landing". APOLLO LANDIN', MAGGLE! BALLGAME! |

Don't worry guys, he'll just be called Apollo once he moves up to the main roster anyway. Which frankly I'd be fine with. That's a pretty solid wrestling name. Until someone makes a "Showtime at the Apollo" reference, and then we get an "HHH IS RACIST!" topic filled to the brim with Hulk Hogan pictures with captions implying that he's a Nazi. |

 Terry Creed would've been a better name. With this theme song: {Spoiler} |

He's named after Apollo Creed and Terry Crews. For all I know he's literally the greatest man to ever live.

Honestly I don't understand the hate for his name. Do we still really expect the WWE to let Indy superstars use their Indy names? It's happened twice in 10 years, it's not a common occurrence.

I don't understand how people think Uhaa Nation is better than Apollo Crews. Apollo Crews sounds like a star's name and makes me confident that WWE will treat him like a star.

Actually, yes, because WWE are no longer just hiring Indy wrestlers. They now hiring Indy wrestlers BECAUSE of heavy notoriety they've gained on the indies. |

Apollo Crews' gimmick should be that Zack Ryder turns into him when he gets angry. Haha! Good to see someone else watches Real Husbands... |

One minute he'll be doing hossy power stuff like gorilla press slams and stalling suplexes, the next he'll be busting out the flippy-dos, like a standing shooting star press. |
