Shane McMahon attacked Roman Reigns with Elias

#1 Elias

Elias established himself as one of the most prominent Superstars on Monday Night Raw over the last two years, and he now looks set to continue his momentum as a member of the SmackDown Live roster after back-to-back segments with McMahon family members – first Vince, then Shane – and Roman Reigns.

It has already been confirmed that WWE’s resident guitarist will face Reigns at the Money In The Bank pay-per-view on May 19, hence why he is in the #1 spot on this list.

The two men have previously met on three occasions on television, with Reigns winning twice and Elias surprisingly winning the most recent encounter when he teamed up with Jinder Mahal to pick up a tag team victory over Reigns and Seth Rollins on Raw in June 2018.

“The Big Dog” will likely be the favourite heading into the match at Money In The Bank, but we often see Superstars defeating rivals in relatively meaningless tag matches on Raw and SmackDown Live, so perhaps Elias could gain the upper hand by pinning his upcoming opponent prior to the PPV.
