While one might not like the attitude of Jake Crist or question why he follows Sami Callihan the way he does, but there is no denying the passion and hard work that Jake has put in recently.
Jake has been called one of the most underrated athletes on the IMPACT Roster and after Friday night he was able to prove that by winning his fist singles title. Jake is a former World Tag Team Champion.
However, the actions of Dave Crist and Madman Fulton might have Rich Swann questioning everything! Is Jake as good as we have been saying? Is he underrated? Would he have won without Dave and Fulton?
If you ask Sami Callihan, oVe Rules and Jake Crist is more than worthy of winning singles titles… so long as the World Title is left for Sami’s collection.
