WWE Money in the Bank: 4 surprises that need to happen at the PPV

#2 Elias defeats Roman Reigns

During the second night of the Superstar Shake-up, Vince personally took to the ring to announce the biggest acquisition in SmackDown’s history. While fans were certain that it would be The Big Dog who’d be announced as the newest member of SmackDown, Vince announced Elias as the greatest acquisition.

This did not work well with Roman Reigns, who made his way out to the ring and flattened both Vince and Elias.

Since then, Reigns has been engaged in a rivalry with Shane McMahon and Elias. Elias challenged Reigns to a match at MITB, which Reigns quickly accepted.

Elias hasn’t had the most success in matches, especially at pay-per-views, and therefore it would be interesting if Elias manages to pull off a victory against one of WWE’s biggest superstars. Elias could use his heelish tactics to do so, establishing himself as a major villain on SmackDown, and also make this rivalry more interesting.
