I'm completely prepared to be proven wrong here, but Solomon Crowe? What's all the fuss about? He'd been built up strongly prior to his NXT debut, with vignettes breaking through onto the programme for weeks before he showed up. Crowe is cryptic and potentially fascinating, and he's spent a number of years around various independent wrestling promotions. However, he'd been with WWE NXT for nearly 18 months prior to getting his break on television. Crowe wrestled dark matches and at live events for the brand, but didn't get his introduction until 2015. Why have the company held off? Are they not sure about him? But while Crowe has a different look, he doesn't have the big character feel that other top NXT stars have. Only time will tell, but on first impressions it doesn't seem as though Crowe has the IT factor that WWE will be looking for. I'll happily eat my words in six months, but it's a no for now.
