Elias was absolutely on fire, burying Lio Rush this week
Elias and Bobby Lashley had a match that was okay at best, and that's being very generous. What I did enjoy was the lead up to the match. Elias was on fire as he made the crowd pop, making fun of Lio Rush, comparing him to a little kid. Why wasn't he a babyface, all this while?

Elias is one of those performers who's made a seamless transition into a babyface role. Lashley was the best antagonist for him, because he's just not gotten over with the WWE Universe. I think Rush also did his bit, boring the crowd with his drivel, before Elias eloquently shut up the hype man!
Elias just went after Lio Rush and became my favorite WWE Superstar @WWE#RAW@TT_4You
I'm just worried about Elias, when the bell rings, to be honest. He's not a bad worker, but not the most exciting one, I feel.
If he steps up his game, he could be a future Champion for sure.
