Probably normal: I'm no dentist, but there could still be some soreness in the area. Contact your dentist if you have ongoing concerns.

It's not the tooth..: It's the support tissues around the tooth (bone and gingiva). How long ago was the root canal therapy completed? Why was the crown replaced? Was there an abscess? Were you in pain before the crown was replaced? With so many questions to be answered, it's best you have the tooth re-evaluated by your dentist.
