Apollo Crews could be set for a surprise singles push after WWE teased tension with tag partner Titus O'Neil on last night's Raw.

WrestlingNews.co are speculating that the show's developments will eventually lead to a Titus Worldwide split, after which Dana Brooke will side with Crews, slotting into a role as the 30-year-old's manager.

The issues first arose when O'Neil interrupted a backstage meeting between Dana and Apollo. These signs of discontent bled into the duo's match against the Authors of Pain, which they lost in less than five minutes. Crews took the pinfall, and WWE uploaded a follow-up interview after the show, in which Titus blamed his teammates for the defeat.

O'Neil then half-arsed his way through the trio's "Worldwide" catchphrase, after Crews had called for them to get back on the same page.

Apollo's first singles run wasn't a success. Through little fault of his own, Crews languished in go-nowhere feuds with the Social Outcasts and Sheamus, and quickly lost his way, fading into the background on SmackDown. Joining Titus Worldwide gave him some direction, but they're a glorified enhancement team.

Crews' supporters have been calling for his elevation for years. Whether he sinks or swims remains to be seen, but we'll soon find out.
