Elias should have hosted Wrestlemania

[rrg251]

Alexa was lame and wasted time. Here's what I would have done:

Elias opens up the show, tries to perform, and gets interrupted by Hogan.

Elias makes another attempt to perform and gets interrupted by Cena.

Elias makes a final attempt to perform and gets interrupted by Undertaker. This turns into an impromptu match, which Taker wins. This makes a lot more sense than Taker showing up on Raw but not at Mania. There was a pungent air of disappointment in the parking lot after the show because of Taker's absence.

That last segment replaces the Carmella/Truth dance party. Carmella can have the dance party after winning the battle royal. Or after Alexa cheats to win the battle royal (which would make more sense than face Carmella cheating) but Carmella throws her out of the ring and celebrates anyway.

We wouldn't have the unintentionally hilarious moment where Alexa clicked her finger and made a racist appear so I disagree.

Elias should have been SOMETHING. The guy was white hot for a while, the least they could have done is give him an IC or US Title run and then see where that led him.

Elias should have main evented Wrestlemania

I will say, I loved his segment so much. The Cena bit was super weird and felt like a waste but on the other hand, Elias performing the instruments I wish went further.

Elias playing a banjo, a kazoo, a triangle, the list is endless.

You talking like Elias cant be the WM 36 host...

[rrg251]

Maybe I mis-phrased the point I was trying to make. I am saying that Mania would have flowed better with Elias as host.

Elias is the perfect character. He's just a great mouthpiece and he's the perfect heel. He doesn't have to wrestle BUT he can, so he can get his comeuppance. He could've promoted himself hosting for weeks leading up to Mania. Gaining more heat along the way until the payoff at Mania with a face getting over on him.

This could've been a big celebrity (since you know WWE loves that), a returning wrestler, or even a mid card act to get them over.

He's diverse. Like an R-Truth. You put him in any situation and he can work with it.
