Apollo Crews’ name has now officially been changed to just Apollo. WWE changed the Superstar’s bio page yesterday to remove all mention to his previous last name.
His Twitter tagline has been changed to remove mention of the Crews last name, as well.
Actor, Terry Crews, commented on the move.
I like and respect Apollo and wish him well— but The @WWE stole my name in the first place.
