9 NXT Stars That Would Make A Huge Impact On WWE's Main Roster

3. Apollo Crews

Apollo Crews has quickly made a name for himself. He just made his debut at NXT Takeover: Brooklyn in August and he€™s already scheduled for an NXT Title Match against Finn Bálor on an upcoming episode of the show. There are a lot of people out there, both in and out of the industry, who are very high up on Crews and believe that he could be the big African-American main event star that WWE has been missing over the last number of years. The man has an approach to in-ring competition that is extremely hard to come by. He can pull off these death-defying flips that you€™d normally expect the likes of Neville and Kalisto to perform, yet he€™s got the frame, and the strength to boot, of a powerhouse. He€™s like Lashley with elements of Matt Sydal incorporated, and it€™s certainly a breath of fresh air. With an added charisma to give this man the full package, it wouldn€™t come as any surprise if Apollo Crews was crowned NXT Champion before the year is out, and even though he€™s only been around for a short time, a future WWE World Heavyweight Championship reign could definitely be in his future, whether it€™s next year or five years from now. He€™s a unique talent, and one that WWE would be foolish not to treat right.
