5 things you probably didn't know about WWE Superstar Elias

#2 His uncle created the ‘Walk With Elias’ phrase

The phrase always gets a big reaction from fans

Throughout his main-roster run on Raw, Elias has been asking fans “Who wants to walk with Elias?” during promos, and recently he has been telling audiences that WWE actually stands for “Walk With Elias”.

In an interview with Yahoo, the man behind the character said the phrase was initially created when his uncle mentioned it to him a few months ago, but he didn’t use the “WWE stands for Walk With Elias” phrase for the first time in front of an audience on television until Christmas Day 2017.

“As soon as I said it I felt that the entire audience got it right away,” said Elias, who decided to go ahead with the phrase on television after John Cena reacted positively to him saying it backstage.
