Elias's last match was July 19, 2021, putting over Jaxson Ryker in their feud. The same episode of Raw saw Karrion Kross debut and lose to Jeff Hardy in under two minutes. Elias's last television appearances were in August, "killing" Elias and burning his guitar. He walked off into the sunset on August 23, 2021. He hasn't tweeted or posted on his Instagram since that last vignette.
Following the momentum from winning the "tag team explodes" feud with Elias, Jaxson Ryker went 4-0 on Main Event prior to returning to Raw to get squashed by Karrion Kross on September 27, 2021. This was part of the attempt to get Kross back on track after debuting and quickly losing to Jeff Hardy. It was also Kross's last match on Raw. Jaxson Ryker's next match was on October 25, 2021 putting over Veer, who is still coming. Jaxson Ryker's last match with WWE was on November 1, 2021, a Main Event loss to Cedric Alexander. Karrion Kross was released on November 4, 2021. Jaxson Ryker was released on November 18, 2021. Jeff Hardy was released on December 11, 2021. Veer is still coming.
Elias's whereabouts are unknown.

Based on what I know about Elias... probably walking somewhere.

Another wrestler whose act they changed for no reason at all without a plan for them.

Elias and Veer are stuck with this shit, and some people want Ali to trust WWE would scrounge something up for him to do.

Apparently his new gimmick was to much like Randy Savage, so it was scrapped. I think now they are playing the waiting game, hoping that the vignette will be forgotten and/or his old act will be forgotten so they can bring him back with his old gimmick.

Last report I saw, Prichard wasn't a fan and he's just been sitting on the sidelines since.

Honestly, if they were to go that route, they'd be better off having him have this grand entrance... and then he's doing the old shtick, and play it that he was hyping up a new release.

This one really burns my ass. The "Midcard Musical Heel Act" is seriously one of the most valuable acts in pro wrestling. Super easy to get a good crowd reaction. Super easy to book. Puts over any face instantly to the live crowd. Also Elias has a safe wrestling history. I can't think of a single reason why a dude like that should disappear unless he's hurt or wants a break.
I take that back, I can think of all sorts of petty bullshit reasons to bench him. *vaguely points at everything WWE* I wonder if he's a victim of "if you aren't the next multi-time world champ you are trash" mentality that seems to be festering inside the company.

He's currently appearing in a string of fun activity books for younger readers, but it's been slapped with a lawsuit from the estate of Martin Handford

Elias could've been a main eventer. He is jacked to the gills, more over than 90% of the roster and was decent in the ring aswell. Most importantly, he actually had a character and wasn't just "SERIOUS WRESTLER WHO BREEDS DIS BIZNESS!"
My guess? They were gonna change his gimmick. He cut the hair and beard, Vince saw it and thought "Holy shit, that's Randy Savage" and now they're waiting for him to grow it all back so he can return to his old gimmick.
Or he's gonna get fired. Probably that.
