16 Things You May Have Missed From WWE Money In The Bank 2018
11. Corey's Cover Up
Seth Rollins vs. Elias was a strong match. There were a few psychological blips (the sudden change from neck to leg work was particularly off-putting), but for the most part, it was a clean, tidy bout in keeping with 'The Kingslayer's' recent Intercontinental Title defences, albeit a level or two below Rollins' last pay-per-view match.
That said, the opening stages were stodgy. 'The Drifter' was visibly struggling to keep up with Rollins at times, and they came close to losing the crowd. Fortunately, Corey Graves had a solid cover-up for their obvious chemistry issues.
"This is a little slow for your typical Seth Rollins match," he said, insinuating that Elias' methodical, grinding style was to blame, when it looked like the workers were simply having trouble finding an understanding. A worked explanation for a shoot problem, it's the kind of little detail that ensures the viewer's immersion isn't torn to pieces when things go awry.
