They actually did make a Pac reference in 96.......and it was tasteless as hell.
Not on the PPVs though and that's what mattersAJ has been laid out every week since he's been champion.

They did make country music references.
1992, Bobby Heenan: "Gorilla, Flair told me Elizabeth was his before the Macho Man's... he's down with O.P.P.!" WILL YOU STOP!

yo this dude rite here
First off you comparing a 20 year vet in Jericho to Crews who literally just entered the WWE system a year ago (Summer 2015)
Compared to how long most guys stay in developmental, that's not a very long time. You're nitpicking nothing. Let Crews cook, you're trying to make him sound like trash which he isn't. I get it if you find him underwhelming or not exciting but Crews has a great workrate, great precision in the ring, and a lot of potential to improve and potentially become a main event talent. He's also very coachable (If you saw Breaking Ground, he was absolutely struggling in promo class at the beginning but he's a smooth talker now. And also before his debut match, Triple H was telling him to come up with a new carry-and-slam-type finish and he made up his spinning powerbomb thing on the spot) Crews is also younger than most indie cats who came through PC developmental which also explains the gap (Not to mention he's 3 years younger than Corbin). Objectively there's nothing wrong with Apollo Crews, it's what's been missing that's the concern.Also Crews consistently puts on solid matches (5 minute popcorn ones at that). He's actually carried Corbin to quite a couple, take this one:
3:38 - Knows how to pop the crowd. That might not sound like much but less experienced guys don't always know how to generate a good crowd reaction from what they do in the ring, while Crews knows how to get the crowd on his side (he also gets some chants in this match)
4:50 - Good psychology, recognizes Corbin did the same spot earlier at 4:04 and ducks it the 2nd time
6:33, 10:56 - Great sells and good finish that made Corbin look like a crafty opportunist while keeping Crews strong
6:39 - Takes bump like a champ to generate a reaction from the crowd
7:03, 7:50 - Good facials
8:49 - He's not all backflips and hurricanranas btw
Oh and also, he's a safe worker who's not doing high risk crazy bumps with him or his opponent every second but can still get a reaction
People who are shytting on Crews better not be changing their tune a year or so in time when he finds his stride, is all I'mma say
My point is you're trying to say Corbin is better than Crews and you're listing the reasons why Crews isn't good in the ring, but you can't really do that when Corbin hasn't exactly mastered the things you've listed either.
Taunting and adlibbing in the ring has nothing to do with in ring work. That's character work all the way, and I agree with you in saying Corbin trumps Crews in that department.

Corbin gonna pull a Bad News Brown on his team 
The tag team SS match... I'm a old nikka brehs... I'm 2 Hyped like Kid n Play
I think if Orton's not appearing at SS, Wyatt takes him out pre-match... Miz replaces him.
