Then one day it finally dawned. Triple H and Stephanie McMahon contacted Elijah's mom, Melody and through her, they linked up with Elijah via Skype, to deliver a message to Elijah.
Despite the pain he was going through, you could see the hope and happiness in his face when he realized that both Stephanie and Triple H were on the line, just to speak with Elijah.
Triple H told Elijah that he had watched his video and out of the many, many videos he had to go through, Elijah's caught his attention to the point where he felt it necessary to personally contact him.

Triple H and Stephanie explained to Elijah that they both believed he was in fact "tough enough." Not only that, but they wanted to bring Elijah and his entire family to an upcoming episode of Raw, so they could meet him in person, as well as to offer him a special honorary superstar contract.
On August 3, 2015, Elijah was able to see a dream come true. WWE rolled out the red carpet for him and his family to sit ringside at Raw, go backstage prior to the show and, Elijah was about to sign an official WWE contract, right there in the middle of the Raw ring.
Not to mention, Elijah was able to meet his personal hero and favorite superstar- Stardust.
When Elijah got into the ring, he was accompanied by his hero, Stardust and he even came up with his own ring-name, which was "Drax Shadow." When Triple H asked if he had a catchphrase, Elijah....excuse me, Drax Shadow responded with "don't fear the darkness, fear the shadow!"
Everything was perfect on this wonderful night in San Jose. Elijah met his favorite wrestlers and had an opportunity of a lifetime to step into a WWE ring, sign an official WWE contract in front of the entire WWE Universe.
It was on this night that for once, Elijah was able to get his mind off of cancer. He was able to simply be a kid and experience his ultimate dream come true.
It's been a year since WWE made this child's dream come true and a lot has happened. Stephanie has remained in contact with Elijah and his family and even invited the family to a couple of other events since this historic night in San Jose.
Despite leaving WWE, Cody Rhodes has also remained in very close contact with Elijah. It's truly been an amazing ordeal that has happened. WWE as a company, including the talent, management and everyone in between has been nothing but amazing to Elijah and his family.
In the months since all of this took place, I have taken a personal interest in this story. I've also made sure I've stayed up to date on what's going on with Elijah, his battle with cancer and just his wellbeing in general.
I wish I could say that Elijah has conquered his battle with neuroblastoma, but that's not the case just yet. In fact, Elijah is having a rough time right now. As of this writing, he is currently in Seattle, where doctors are trying to find the answers to the questions they have yet to understand.
Needless to say, the little guy has had better days, but one thing is certain, he's a warrior and somehow, someway, he'll come out on top.
