Jim Ross Sees Apollo Crews As “A Main Event Player For Years to Come”

A report recently made the claim that Vince McMahon is very unhappy with the development of some new talents called up to the main roster.

His thought on The Vaudevillains have been well documented, but he had some choice words for Apollo Crews as well.

Apparently, Crews is receiving a lot of praise for his in-ring work, but WWE officials are not sold on his personality and believe that he’s not getting over the way he should be. However, another feels differently.

During a recent blog entry from Jim Ross on his website, he had a lot of praise for Crews, but his concerns weren’t about his momentum, but the long-term effects his wrestling style will have on his knees.

You can read the full entry about what JR thinks of Apollo right here. Below are his exact words:

“Apollo Crews is beginning to build momentum thanks to him simply winning all his matches in impressive fashion. (Funny how that works.) I’d like to see Apollo take it easier on this knees but his flying style, he’s certainly a thick flyer that’s for sure, is inherently challenging to one’s knees thanks to the landings. Crews is a helluva prospect and has a legit chance to be a main event player for years to come. No guarantees but hes got all the tools or so it seems.”

Do you think Apollo Crews is struggling to find a place on the main roster?
