Rumor Roundup: Heel Turn Coming Soon? WWE Tag Team Removed From Television, More

1) Heel Turn Coming Soon?

According to a report from WrestlingNews.co, WWE is starting to plant the seeds for Apollo Crews to turn heel. This comes after Crews used the ropes to his advantage during his match against Shelton Benjamin on RAW.

The site says that there were plans last month for Crews to turn heel and join MVP’s faction. Those plans appear to still be in place. Here is what the site wrote:

Last month I exclusively reported that there were plans for Crews to turn heel and there was talk of MVP forming a stable. There were plans back in March to have Crews turn on Chad Gable when he was on SmackDown but those plans were dropped when Crews was moved to Raw.

Last week after Paul Heyman was removed from his creative duties, I was told that the plans for MVP’s stable were still in place. Shelton Benjamin’s name was also discussed as a name that could also join the stable.

I was told that MVP has been working to try to get Benjamin featured more on TV as he and others in the company realize that he should be utilized more.

My Take:

  • Heel Apollo could be interesting. I am just happy to see him get some character development and a chance to shine. He is a talented guy and I am excited to see what happens.
