No, we’re not talking about Jinder Mahal and Roman Reigns.

Seth Rollins and Elias are two of the hottest wrestlers on Raw right now. Elias can draw nuclear heat as a villain, between insulting every hometown and opponent, while Rollins has figured out how to rally fans behind him effortlessly.

We saw this on display on Monday night, when Elias sang about his Money in the Bank opponent and his stupid nickname, as well as the stupidity of Little Rock, Arkansas. This drew Rollins out, who informed Elias that he’s not hard to find before spying the troubadour’s guitar.

And one guess what happened next. The property damage wasn’t needed, but it didn’t hurt things either. It just furthered the rivalry between the two men. This should make for a pretty interesting match on Sunday.
