“It’s no secret that the crowd explodes when I go out there.. no doubt about that man. You know, essentially for the past couple of years, from the top to the top, in this business, I’m talking The Undertaker, John Cena, Shawn Michaels, Kurt Angle, Hulk Hogan, Stone Cold Steve Austin, you can go on and on.”
“All of these guys individually have told me, on a personal basis, that I have every tool needed to make it to the top. You need personality, charisma, talent, I can play music, I can play with the crowd, I’m built like this, I can wrestle, I can go, I can fight, but for some reason I come up short every time.”

“He wanted to tag along with Elias because he saw the kind of vision I have and he’s heard my music and he’s heard my message and it was borderline no help at all. And then all of a sudden I’m trying to get away from that guy, sticks with me, we’ve had all these matches, and after tonight I don’t, I certainly don’t want to mix it up with Ryker anymore. I mean, we go all out, we give everything we’ve got, the crowd was there the entire time, I’ll tell you it really feels like something hasn’t changed.”
He may not get a chance to secure a victory almost immediately, but WWE should book him in another match for Elias to prove his worth to the WWE Universe.
