► Apollo Crews is happy in NXT but wants more

“I was like: ‘I’m 100% for it’ (going to NXT). It was one of those things where it was like, ‘Is it long term or is it short term?’ Honestly, it doesn’t matter. I will control what I can control. If you give me this chance, I’ll go out here and kill him. If they bring me back to Raw or SmackDown two weeks later, so be it. If they bring me back in two months, so be it. In my head, I wanted to make the most of the opportunity that was presented to me because I was essentially presented with the opportunity to change the trajectory of my career and really start over, something that not many people get to do.. It was like, ‘Let’s just wipe the slate clean, and let’s start here.’ Okay, let’s work on what should have been done the first time.

«I think when I originally came to NXT and signed for the first time, I think the time I spent in NXT was too short.. I don’t think he had enough development as a character, as a TV personality, he wasn’t developed enough. He wasn’t ready to ascend, but this is something he himself Triple H pushed me aside and said: ‘Hey, you’re going to debut on Raw’. This was after Dallas. We did a TakeOver in Dallas, I think I wrestled Elias for a taping the following week on NXT, which was still on the WWE Network at the time. Triple H came up to me and [me dijo]: ‘You’re going to Raw basically tomorrow.’ Or WrestleMania was on Sunday, and then it would debut on Monday. I was like: ‘Wow’.

“What do you say? You’re not going to sit there and say, ‘No, I think I need to stay here longer.’ That is the dream. This is why I literally came here.. He didn’t know what to expect, just like signing with NXT. I didn’t know what to expect, moving to the Performance Center or moving to Orlando. You don’t know what to expect, and you hear so many different stories. Even the stories you hear, no matter what they tell you. Everyone’s situation will be different. Everyone’s career is going to be different, the way things happen to people. Everything is going to be different, so you can’t really rely on what other people say.

“So to be blessed with this opportunity to come down and help myself while helping other young talent as well, it’s a blessing and it’s an honor, and I’m going to take full advantage of this, I feel like I’ve already done that for the last few years.” six months. When the time is right, when that decision is made, we can go back, hopefully go back to Raw, SmackDown, play premium live events, play WrestleManias, Royal Rumbles, Survivor Series, SummerSlams.. That’s why I feel like everyone comes here. They would be lying if they told you no.
