WWE News: Elias performs a special concert in Bourbon Street bar ahead of WrestleMania
What's the story?
WrestleMania weekend has officially kicked off and it looks like Elias warmed up for the performance of a lifetime - by playing an intimate set for some of the WWE Universe enjoying the festivities at a bar on Bourbon Street.
In case you didn't know...
While we still don't know what role Elias will play at WrestleMania, The Drifter has spent the past few weeks hyping up his "biggest performance ever" in New Orleans.
Rumours have been floating around that Elias could team with Braun Strowman to face off against The Bar for the Raw Tag Team Championships or that he could even be involved with a sing-off segment against The Rock!
The heart of the matter
Well, Bourbon Street has been taken over by the WWE Universe, and Elias treated the fans who attended NOLA's Razzoo Bar to a surprise, intimate set last night.
Needless to say, New Orleans walks with Elias and he got an immense reaction from the crowd which had rammed into the small venue, as you can hear below.
Fans took to social media to post photos and videos of the performance, as you can see below.
And you can see the moment Elias walked on stage here. Just a tip, turn the volume down. The reaction was pretty deafening!
What's next?
Well, who knows where Elias will show up next? One thing is for sure, he'll be at WrestleMania on Sunday. But what role will the guitarist play? We'll have to wait and see.
Author's take
This is awesome. Can you imagine being in a bar and Elias walks out to perform unexpectedly?! No wonder the crowd went wild.
Elias is fast becoming one of the most over Superstars on the roster, and this only reinforces why.
