Question: why wasn't Elias on Raw? Did WWE want to pare down the number of 'Wild Card' incomers? Or, has the music man been phased out of his alliance with Shane McMahon in favour of Drew McIntyre? Our money is on the latter.

It looks like Elias has been ditched. Creative clearly prefer McIntyre acting as Shane's heavy, but what does this mean for Eli's future? Maybe that babyface turn WWE dabbled with before is on the cards.
