WrestleMania 36: 9 WWE Superstars who desperately need a win at the PPV

#3 Elias

Literally, everyone wants to walk with Elias!

In a surprising turn of events, we saw a Single’s match being booked between Elias and ‘King’ Baron Corbin. The latter interrupted the WrestleMania host Rob Gronkowski which then caused Elias to throw Corbin out of the ring. This brief altercation led to Gronkowski talking about a match between these two Superstars at The Grandest Stage of Them All and it has now been made official by the WWE.

King Corbin is one of the most hated heels in the entire WWE roster and he does a brilliant job in attracting heat from the fans. A feud with him can get any Superstar over with the crowd – something that Elias needs right now as he hasn’t been involved in a compelling feud for a long time. Corbin, on the other hand, had an extended rivalry with Roman Reigns that saw him pick victories on several important occasions.

Although Elias too is an excellent heel, he is one of the few Superstars who can manage to work as a babyface equally well. A victory for him at WrestleMania 36 will allow the creatives to put more effort into his latter bookings. As far as Corbin is concerned, he has established himself as a reliable Superstar who can feud with anyone on the roster and a loss won’t cause much harm to his gimmick.
