After Apollo Crews was taken out of action with a (kayfaybe) knee injury and forced to give up his spot in the Money in the Bank Ladder Match, rumors did the rounds that WWE was planning on turning the talented Superstar heel.
Well, while that could obviously still happen down the line, it looks like Crews is staying face for the time being.
Apollo returned on Raw last night and teamed with Kevin Owens for a tag-team match against Andrade and Angel Garza. After his team won thanks to a mistake from Austin Theory (which he paid for), Crews was given another opportunity to win the United States Championship when he goes one-on-one with Andrade next week.
Could Apollo actually win the title? If he doesn't, that would surely signal the end of his "push" and send him back down to the bottom of the card. Of course, another failure could also be the catalyst for that rumored heel turn. We'll just have to see how this match goes next Monday.
