3 reasons why Roman Reigns is facing Elias at Money in the Bank 2019

#1. To push Elias

Elias has been one of the most consistent entertainers in WWE ever since he debuted on the main roster. As a matter of fact, he is one of the very few Superstars who had better success on the main roster than on NXT. Reportedly, Vince McMahon is very high on the Drifter - for obvious reasons.

A feud against Roman Reigns either makes you or breaks you. Quite a few WWE Superstars lost their momentum after a feud against Roman Reigns - Bobby Lashley is one of the best examples of that. However, there are some who benefited from a rivalry with The Big Dog - including the likes of Seth Rollins and Braun Strowman.

If WWE is still looking to push Elias to the next level, Roman Reigns is the best opponent to initiate that. Even though the chances of Elias coming out on top are slim, a fantastic match against The Big Dog could provide a huge boost for Elias.
