Elijah (Elias) has returned to the ring.
At REVOLVER Whatashow on February 17th, the promotional debut of Elijah was presented, as he took on TNA's Speedball Mike Bailey in singles competition. The match was a display of Elijah's power and strength vs Bailey's speed and agility, with Speedball managing to capture the victory.

While Elijah had a new name, he kept much of the same moves and character traits he had as Elias in WWE, continuing on a character that fans were drawn to in the promotion.
The bout served as Elijah's first match since being released by WWE in September of last year. Throughout his time in WWE, Elijah went by the names of Elias and Ezekiel, twin brothers who everyone recognized as such apart from Kevin Owens. While he did capture championship gold during his time in the company, it would come in the form of four 24/7 title reigns.
Fightful will update fans with any future bookings of Elijah in the future.
