Apollo Crews made his return to NXT last night and set his sights on challenging for the NXT Championship.

While dropping his Nigerian royalty character, Crews confronted Breakker last night when Breakker asked who was going to step up and challenge for his title. Crews said he left NXT way too soon when he was first on the brand, and he left a lot of things he wanted to accomplish on the table. Crews is now back in NXT to change history.

Crews said he's back in NXT for as long as he wants to be.

Crews called Breakker one of the best athletes in all of WWE. Crews said that -- one day sooner rather than later -- they'll be making some history together. Crews said he'll see Breakker down the road.

Crews also returned to action later in the episode, providing backup for Solo Sikoa against Carmelo Hayes & Grayson Waller. Crews & Sikoa defeated Hayes & Waller in last night's main event.
