7 Ups And 5 Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (Feb 5)

2. The Drifter Steals A Big Win

He probably won’t win the Elimination Chamber, but Elias gained a huge (storyline) advantage Monday night when he won a triple threat match against John Cena and Braun Strowman when he pinned Cena after a Braun powerslam.

Elias carefully ducked and steered clear of Strowman, breaking up a pinfall and then fleeing the Monster Among Men. He teamed up with Cena long enough to put Braun down, and then when Cena was incapacitated, Elias shoved Strowman out of the way and grabbed the decisive pinfall himself.

Now that’s the mark of a true heel, avoiding action and stealing pinfalls you didn’t cause.
