This Former NXT Superstar Was Seen Drifting Through Raw Last Night

It looks like the rumors may be true. Elias Samson, who was forced out of NXT in a loser leaves match against Kassius Ohno, had been reported to make his debut on the main roster after Wrestlemania. It now looks like he’ll be settled into Raw, as his multiple appearances during last night’s taping would allude to.

One of the more noteworthy appearances last night was in the middle of Chris Jericho’s promo, where he walked behind him on the entrance ramp playing his guitar. The antic set Jericho off into an alliterative tirade which resulted in Samson making the List of Jericho.

While there has been no word on him being signed to the brand by General Manager Kurt Angle, and no matches have thus been signed for Samson, we can only allude to where this is going. Dare we say that he’ll have a match with Jericho in the near future–possibly at Backlash–where Jericho will put him over? It could be a reasonable bet given last night.

This wasn’t the only time that Samson was seen on camera, with him being spotted by former rival Corey Graves as well as Karl Anderson. I’m sure more will be seen of him next week.
