For weeks, Apollo Crews has been attempting to make a name for himself by challenging some of Raw’s most talented Superstars. In Manchester, he finally found some daylight, notching a much-needed win over former WWE Champion Jinder Mahal. Even then, it took a few minutes for Crews to find his footing, as the “human highlight reel’s” athleticism mostly came up empty against Mahal’s coordinated attack with the help of Sunil Singh at ringside. But Crews rallied to catch The Maharaja in a press-moonsault one-two to earn the pinfall. It was a display that was both impressive and effective, and the distinction is a crucial one: Being a human highlight reel is all well and good, but as Crews admitted, that only goes so far without the record to back it up. Now, he’s taken his first steps to correct that.
