7 Ups And 6 Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (March 5)
3. Elias And Braun Make Music Together
Occasionally, you have a wrestling equivalent of an Odd Couple, a pairing that wouldn’t seem to work on paper, but actually ends up working perfectly when you put it into practice. That’s Elias and Braun Strowman.
The two have had an odd rivalry in recent weeks, and it escalated to a Symphony of Destruction match Monday, a falls count anywhere bout that involved musical instruments. First, Elias played some piano, drums and guitar while running down Strowman. He then tried to flee, only to have Braun literally hold up his escape vehicle, lifting the rear of the car off the ground.
Back in the arena, Braun then mauled the troubadour, breaking a bass over him and dropping a piano on him (ala Looney Toons). Strowman mercifully pinned Elias, ending the match. As a match, it wasn’t much, and the result wasn’t in doubt, but as a segment, it was entertaining as hell.
