    Apollo Crews is now Apollo because...

    Two rumours I've heard:

    1) Terry Crews asked for it as he decided WWE should be paying him for using his surname.

    2) The Florida killer's surname is Cruz and sounds similar.

    Usually I don't like these arbitrary name changes (Adrien Neville and Elias Samson spring to mind as changes I disliked) but this one is alright. Apollo is a cool name and anything that might mean the guy gets a push is fine with me.

    Hardly fussed on the name change, it won't be long before most new roster wrestlers have a single name.

    I don't really get it. Apollo doesn't sound better. Actually, Apollo Crews was better. Unlike Elias, whose name change was perfect for his gimmick, this really sucks for Apollo.

    There are two reasons why it's been changed, not much to get.

    The 2nd one seems the more likely.

    I just don't see Terry Crews caring enough to say something

    He did on Twitter. It's whether he was joking or not is another matter.

    The Apollo astronaut crews wanted their residuals.

    Neville might be leaving WWE so they can give the space gravity gimmick to Apollo. He flies just as well.
