This man is incredible, and is the total package. There is no reason he can't be the next guy in Cena's place. He has the look, talent, moveset diversity, charisma, experience, age, mainstream appeal, and positive drive to be the company's front-runner. He could also make history by being the first (fully) African American WWE Champion. He has the build Vince drools over, a movie-star smile, the in-ring talent even the most hardcore fans appreciate, and is a role model for the younger demographic from the limited interviews he's had. I would bring him up in 2016 and make him a star. A lot of the newly acquired vets in NXT are old and could suffer the same fates as Daniel Bryan and most recently Seth Rollins with injuries from accrued wear and tear. Crews is still young (28) and is by far the most impressive athlete in developmental right now (or on the main roster for that matter).
Thoughts?

If anyone can become the first fully African American WWE Champ, it's him.

I don't believe there needs to be one THE GUY, but Apollo Crews is certainly someone with the potential to be a major player.

He's fantastic, been a fan of his since I saw him do incredible things in Japan, etc.
As for being 'the guy' - I don't care, I just admire Uhaa Apollo a great deal and wish him nothing but the best.

Yes, absolutely. If I could buy stock in wrestlers, I'd put it all on him being a future WWE champion.

From what I have seen of him I don't see anything special in him at all. He would probably make a great IC Champion or US Champion, but I don't see him being WWE World Champion.
Now Finn Balor on the other hand.... he could be WWE World Champion in time. He has the look, the star power, the charisma, he is like a Jeff Hardy with the paint that he uses, and kids love that stuff.

I don't by him being "THE GUY" but he's a great talent and should be a main eventer in time and also a future WWE Champion.Nothing wrong with not being able to be "THE GUY" because very and I am very few men have ever truly had that role.I still believe and believe that the WWE also does in that man being Roman Reigns.

The sad truth is that the NXT title means a lot more than the IC/US titles. It has been a step down for Owens.

His skin color says no Unless hhh is in charge by then If HHH is in charge then it's a definite no. As HHH would say, "Your people don't win world titles."

There isn't any doubt in my mind that he's a future WWE Champion. He's the total package, and I'm a really big fan. That being said, the road to becoming the man is going to run through Seth Rollins and Finn Balor before Crews gets the chance.

In all seriousness I love what HHH has done on NXT and hope to heavens he's in charge once Balor and Apollo get the call.

I really hope so. It looks like he so genuinely loves this business. He's always smiling as well. Everyone's so darn serious nowadays, Apollo just has fun in the ring.
