5 Superstars who will benefit from WWE Draft 2019

#4 Elias

Elias (SmackDown)

Last year, Elias was one of the most sought after WWE Superstars on either roster. He had babyface written all over him as he went up against Bobby Lashley and Lio Rush. Since his Intercontinental Championship reign, Elias has endured a quiet period where he has only managed a couple of 24/7 Championship reigns. Blessed with the gift of the gab, Elias is more than capable of holding his own in the ring as well. His ability to pull off a heel character and a face bode well for him as he makes a move to SmackDown.

While he associated with Shane McMahon for a few months, the storyline did no good to his stocks although his promos we still a rage among the WWE Universe. His initial days on SmackDown this year saw Vince McMahon herald him as the greatest acquisition of SmackDown. This led to a feud with Roman Reigns, which could only have one outcome considering the Big Dog's reputation. He hasn't had much to do off late with the WWE Draft providing a fresh start to Elias. With a visible lack of heels on the SmackDown roster after the conclusion of the WWE Draft 2019, Elias could be viewed as a top Superstar.
