#5 WWE is going nowhere with Elias

If you've watched the recent episodes of Raw then it isn't hard to understand that Elias is in a complicated zone. The singing superstar might be striking the right chords with his guitar but if his career in WWE is being talked about then it's stuck at a zone which is too hard to understand.

Elias had the backing of the WWE Universe and his feuds with Baron Corbin and Bobby Lashley did seem to take him up the pecking order but ever since The Royal Rumble, Elias' character has witnessed a drastic change and now here we stand with Elias nowhere near an intriguing storyline heading into WrestleMania.

The walk with Elias chant was gaining a solid momentum but things have unexpectedly slowed down and the WWE creative team is only to blame. The singing superstar was seen the legendary Jeff Jarret at Royal Rumble and then at Raw, but the WWE Universe didn't really buy any of the things the two men with guitars had to say.

Elias is a good performer and owns impressive skills on the mic, in short, the man with the guitar has it all it to succeed at the highest level but the recent trajectory is suggesting great things for Elias.
