The Drifter has become one of the best things about Monday Night Raw over the past few months, but whilst he was down in NXT he was able to find his feet as a musician and introduced himself to the WWE Universe as Elias Samson.

Samson was shockingly promoted to the main roster without being able to create a buzz about himself on the developmental brand so the company decided that his name should have a facelift when he did make it to Monday Night Raw. This change has since allowed him to come up with a new catchphrase "Walk With Elias" which suits his character much better and has allowed him to get over with the WWE Universe.

Many of the WWE Universe will be hardpressed to remember that Elias once had a last name.
