Elias was part of the Superstars who were released in September, and now he is a free agent. This means he is getting back out in the pro wrestling world, and now he will have a new name.

Elias was Ezekiel in WWE as well, his twin brother. That gimmick may have been the cause of his demise in the company. Now, he has a new name.

Ringside News exclusively reported that there was a belief within WWE that Elias’ Ezekiel storyline killed his career in the company. He wasn’t able to rebound, and he was released. Now, we will get to see what he does next.

The former Drifter jumped on Twitter to reveal that his name is now Elijah. He made that very clear along with an animated gif.
