Apollo Crews is your new WWE Intercontinental Champion.
Tonightโs WrestleMania 37 Night Two show saw Crews capture the title from Big E by winning a Nigerian Drum Fight. The No DQ match featured tables, large drums and brass gongs at ringside, along with kendo sticks.
Crews won the match with help from the former Dabba-Kato, who has debuted under his new gimmick. WWE has new plans for the RAW Superstar, who is now apparently on SmackDown. His name could be either โCommador Azeezโ or โAzez,โ but nothing has been confirmed as of this writing.
This is Crewsโ first reign with the title. Big E won it back on the December 25 SmackDown show by defeating Sami Zayn in a Lumberjack Match.
Stay tuned for more. Below are several shots from tonightโs title change at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida:
