He's incredibly agile and does unthinkable things in the ring. He's a bit bigger than John Cena but moves around the ring like Neville. It's crazy and I love it.

I was actually at the DGUSA show in Indy when he made his debut. When he walked out, nobody there really knew who he was.
By the end of the match, we were going nuts for him.
It was made even more impressive afterward when it was announced that he had been signed to a DGUSA deal on the spot earlier in the day after impressing in a seminar/tryout before the show.
Guy is one of the most impressive I've seen in terms of blending his size and agility. If WWE lets him show that off the way those of us that have seen him know he can, dude is going to be a HUGE star.

That guy making the hand gestures in your sig, doe. Crews is gonna be huge. I can feel it. Also, the name Apollo is great for wrestling, how have we not had more? |

He's an awesome wrestler who can do everything in the ring. I can't wait to see Apollo Crews (that's going to take some time to get used to) vs Balor. It'll be at least 4 stars.

"Uhaa Nation" is a stupid name really, but it sounds like he's another Internet God, so we're in for a lot of posts that's for sure.

He's a good worker who has had solid matches in DGUSA and was over in Japan with Dragon Gate. I get the name since he kinda looks like Terry Crews. Basically this. He's a good worker with a varied moveset. Very exciting to watch. |

"Uhaa" is his real life last name, and the "Nation" part was given to him by his high school football coach, who said he "had the strength of an entire nation". So yeah still not a good name lol |

Forget who posted it. But I agree, Apollo is a pretty rad name. Crews is kind of eh. Apollo Crews does sound pretty good together though. |

Was not familiar with him until now. Very glad he is signed. I've watched a lot of highlights of him and I must say I'm very impressed. He is gonna tear it up in nxt for sure. I'll be watching him closely. Hope he succeeds.

When you are what John Cena should have been these past 10 years, then you command respect from the near impossible to please VERY quickly. The ONLY reason the one man nation couldn't swoop in & take the number one spot within a year & 6 months will be Vince MchManiac & Kevin DUNNCE. All! HAIL! APOLLO!!! |

WWE has done just fine with him at the top. Blind internet hate that is fading for him seems to ignore that fact. |

WWE has done just fine with him at the top. Blind internet hate that is fading for him seems to ignore that fact. The man that is supposed to be the Hulk Hogan/Ric Flair hybrid of our generation shouldn't do just fine in the ring. I grew up an amateur wrestling die-hard before I ever watched the pros, so even as a friggin 12 year old in 2005, I did not like Cena & couldn't understand why he was champion. Back to the point, Apollo is not overrated, even though his promo work might be a sink or swim deal. He seems to ooze charisma, though. |

I have been so lucky to witness a lot of his matches as he made a name for himself over here in the UK at Preston City Wrestling.
His move set is great as Uhaa so I really hope not much changes with that. He's a great guy and has amazing in ring charisma. Always knew he would one day get signed.
