The heart of the matter

After last nights episode of WWE RAW went off the air, Elias came out in front of the live audience in Boston, MS. Elias walked into the ring with his guitar and just as he was about to start his performance, he was interrupted by Seth Rollins.

Rollins came into the ring and requested that Elias play a song by Boston's own, Dropkick Murphys. Instead of complying with Rollins' request, Elias went to attack the former WWE Champion instead.

Rollins ducked the attempted guitar-shot by Elias and laid him out with a Superkick. The Architect then hit Elias with Curb Stomp to finish him off and send the fans home happy.

What’s up with this whole “Lets go attack Seth Rollins when RAW goes off the air” business? After my loss to Drew McIntyre, it was Baron Corbin and now I got Elias coming for me. Luckily I was able to defend myself this week. pic.twitter.com/8F0pKqzCuM
