10 Wrestlers Who Need A Dean Ambrose Style Makeover

5. Apollo Crews

Why: Speaking of which, it doesn't sit well that Apollo Crews looks like Titus O'Neil's little brother.

The Titus Worldwide gimmick was designed to give Crews some direction, and it's worked a bit. Put it this way: he's on television regularly, and that might not be the case if he was on his lonesome away from the bumbling O'Neil. Even so, it's hard to shake the sense that Apollo is Titus without the height.

Suggestion: Crews must do something to better characterise his appearance. Right now, he's another who has that bland CAW look to him, and it's not good. Growing out his hair isn't likely, so Apollo should focus on some new ring gear (longer tights?) or growing out a beard to remove the Titus-lite comparison.

Something, anything would be better than playing second-fiddle to a 41-year old mid card act best known this year for falling flat on his face during the Greatest Royal Rumble. Crews has genuine ability, and he's being wasted because his overall presentation is 100% boring.
