It’s a good thing they called The Drifter up from developmental because we now know that WWE stands for Walk With Elias.
Since arriving on Raw, fans seem to have gravitated toward Elias’ updated throwback gimmick and it’s paid off well for him. Elias has played guitar since he was 15 and embodies this character as himself turned up to 11. But it looks like this isn’t the end for him as a musician even though he put his guitar down last week on Raw before announcing “this is your fault” and drifting away.
He recently spoke to Guitar World where he provided an interesting answer to a question regarding recording music with WWE.
“Absolutely, I believe WWE—which, if you are not aware, stands for ‘Walk with Elias’—the company is taking notice of what I’m doing every week and there’s absolutely plans in the works to record music, release music, put it out there and give them the sound of Elias that they can take with them. They can have it on their phone, they can have it wherever on whatever music format they have.”
Elias’ current gimmick is getting over at live events and was working very well in Madison Square Garden. Whether Elias is kayfabing us or not is beside the point but he certainly has our interest. It would be very interesting to hear an album full of Elias originals, what do you think?
