10 Things We Learned From WWE 24: Raw 25
9. Elias Was Under Big Pressure
Though much of the special focuses on nostalgia and looking back at the good old days of Raw, there's some decent time given to newer stars like Elias. Watch his talking head segments again and you'll notice that he looked pretty damn stressed as backstage WWE officials marched him around the arena.
One thing that becomes clear throughout the show is that WWE were on a super-tight schedule.
That's perhaps nothing new, but the pressure for Elias to be on the ball as he switched between backstage promos with Chris Jericho and in-ring stuff with Jimmy Fallon and John Cena is noticeable. There's even a moment when poor Elias tells one worker he needs a bottle of water, because all that running around has him parched.
Jericho's cameo was hurried on the night so WWE had plenty of time to spotlight Fallon at ringside and give Elias his big guitar-breaking moment. Elias must have been breathing a sigh of relief when it was done.
