WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley Praises NXT Star Apollo Crews on Facebook

Apollo Crews made his debut at the biggest stage NXT had to offer thus far. In front of a Barclay Center crowd the former independent wrestler showed that a big man with a solid physique can move around like a cruiserweight. Crews is fluid, yet powerful, in the way he delivers drop kicks and his signature standing moonsault. You also can't forget about his jumps. He can jump over just about anybody. With Crews starting to captivate the WWE Universe little by little, WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley has some big predictions for the budding Superstar. According to Foley's Facebook page, he wouldn't be surprised if Crews is playing major roles on Raw, Smackdowns and PPVs.

"DID I JUST SEE THAT," Foley said on his blog post on Facebook.

"That's what I kept asking myself while catching up on #NXT last night, and seeing Apollo Crews in action. While the road to stardom to #WWE can be paved with roadblocks - both physical and psychological - I wouldn't be surprised at all to see this man playing a major role on WWE Raw #Smackdown and PPV for years to come."

In the comments section for his post, Foley continued on with his praise of Crews. He says the key to his success will be due to the types of matches, stories and opponents he gets.

"I think the major consensus is this guy is a rising star, and if a few breaks fall in his favor, this guy seems to be the limit for him in WWE. As is usually the case, finding the right opponents, and creating memorable programs - as opposed to having a good series of random matches - is the key to really breaking through in sports entertainment."

Do you think Mick Foley's prediction about Apollo Crews is accurate?
