I haven't seen either of their work in NXT but I see a lot of people on the internet are hyped for both of their careers. Apollo is an amazing athlete and has a physique Vince would go for so I would be inclined to say him but I do see a lot of praise for Jordan so i'm interested in seeing what you guys think.

Crews has been pretty unmemorable so far in NXT while Jordan is one half of possibly the best young tag team in the industry

I think Crews has more potential as a singles star though because I think Gable is the standout in American Alpha (which is no insult to Jordan, Gable is just that good)

Crews cause he has the "look" and he is already backed by the IWC, his ring work is solid and can do some big spots.. If he learn how to cut a promo or get a good gimmick, he will have a good run..

I can see gable stepping up if given a chnace but crews has the best chance yo succeed

Im always fond of tag team guys going solo and over achieving

Crews, but I honestly think they might be pushing him too soon - he could be the Make-A-Wish dude, but he desperately needs mic experience if it's he's not going to end up the next Ezekial Reigns.

Jordan needs to keep his face to Gable and his ass away from any Barbershop windows.

Its not looking good for Jordan in the long term since he's always booked as the clean up guy on the team. Other than some crisp suplexes and the running shoulder tackle we barely see anything from him

Jordan, imo. Crews' lack of charisma and character work has been his shortcoming (along with his height) for his entire career, and his time in NXT did nothing to help him seem more comfortable talking or doing anything that isn't flipping around. He's going to have the same role as Neville (short jacked dude who flips and once in a while takes a main eventer to the limit) and probably burn out with a knee injury in a few years. I can't believe they bill him at 6'1" lol. Crews will initally probably get a good spot due to being so jacked, but his lack of charisma and height are going to kill him fast.

Jordan has unlocked the charisma and fire multiplier since teaming to Gable, and I see them as having a good run together on the main roster and Jordan eventually being a long term upper mid card guy they can depend on to put on good matches with anyone for years.

Agreed. Crews desperately needs a character defining trait. He shows zero charisma right now. That might be the fault of the people writing his character, but he hasn't really impressed in his matches either. He's what they're looking for aesthetically, but I think he'll just be another midcard guy ala Neville if he doesn't improve on the mic.

Jordan is really good in ring for someone who's only been doing this for 2-3 years, I can definitely see him having a long career in the WWE.

Jordan will be the first black champ.

He is one of those ones that people with no vision will make their decision on.

He's like Austin in the Hollywood Blondes right now. "oh THAT guy? Naaahhhhhhh" but really this time is helping him to develop under the radar.

Crews... Too much too soon. I want the best for both of them. But Jordan has that "It" factor that will develop in the long run.

He's also a pure WWE product. Which will help him.

so what exactly does he do well?
explosive moveset and has charisma

this is why i made the post i made, he's only been used for hot tags and considering he was there for FCW as well you'd think they'd have more faith in him.

Jordan and Crews both have zero charisma and tier zero mic skills.

Jordan was doing NOTHING before gable came along, and showed nothing in the way of having any type of personality.

No one saw that breaking ground with Tyler Breeze making fun of Jordan like, all I hear them chanto is Gables name, they never say yours.

Both are great athletes and great ring workers.
