Not-So-Harmless Villain: Despite the number of times he's been beaten up over the years, he's still a good wrestler, and occasionally gets a chance to show that fact off by winning his match. At the Greatest Royal Rumble, he scored five eliminations, including Kofi Kingston, Xavier Woods, Kurt Angle and Randy Orton.

The Worf Effect
 Elias (Wrestling) / int_178ca149
comment
The Worf Effect: Ezekiel, in the few months he was on Raw, was established as an old-school powerhouse who could mix it up with Chad Gable and Kevin Owens. So when Kevin Owens reverted to his old "Prizefighter" self, Ezekiel became Kevin's first victim with an Apron Powerbomb sending him into early "retirement".

The Stoic: Not particularly expressive unless he's either singing and playing his guitar or beating on an opponent. Not much can get a rise out of him period, as when an irate Braun Strowman came up behind him upon overhearing him revealing that he saw where Baron Corbin went, he changed his song around to rat out Corbin's hiding place without even missing a beat.

It Only Works Once: Drake Maverick learns the hard way in his pursuit of the 24/7 championship that you can't pull the "referee-in-disguise" trick and fool him when it's already been pulled so many other times throughout the title's history. He promptly gets choked out and thrown back into the box he was hiding in for his efforts.

Five-Second Foreshadowing: It's been a minor recurring gag that Elias foreshadows the interruption to his musical segment himself. During the RAW after WrestleMania 35, he spoke on John Cena interrupting his WrestleMania segment, and said that "the next one to interrupt [him] is a dead man." Cue gong. The next week, on RAW's Superstar Shakeup show, he said that if anyone interrupts him, they will never "be able to show their face again!" Cue Rey Mysterio. And yet the very next day, on Smackdown Live, he said that as the "biggest acquisition of Smackdown Live" by Vince McMahon, he will be "taking the rei(g)ns" of the show. Cue The Big Dog.

Butt-Monkey: Constantly, constantly, has his segments interrupted by another wrestler from the locker room; most of those interruptions end with him getting beaten up, sometimes with his own guitar. Occasionally he does get the upper hand on his interrupter, but not nearly as often. He also lost his first championship in the same night that he won it.

comment
Happened again on the Raw after WrestleMania 38, this time claiming to be Ezekiel, Elias' younger brother. With shorter hair, a shaven face, and trunks. Interestingly, he was promptly established as a face by way of (a) acting completely earnest and polite, and (b) chronic liar Kevin Owens being the only one not buying this identity, and losing his mind over it while reminding everyone how much he hates liars. But there are photos of Elias and Ezekiel together (totally not Photoshopped), and if Ezekiel just happens to do some of Elias's moves, well, obviously he would've learned some things from his older brother, right?

 Elias (Wrestling) / int_617f0563
comment
Heel–Face Turn: On the October 22, 2018 edition of Raw, Elias turned face after attacking Baron Corbin from behind, who had previously told him to stop playing his song. In early 2019 Elias turned heel. After returning from an injury in late 2019, Elias was a face again. In 2022, after being absent for several months following his last heel run, "Ezekiel" was received as a face due to his earnest demeanor being a foil to Kevin Owens' hypocritical lying heel.

Bullying a Dragon
 Elias (Wrestling) / int_7eb73553
comment
Bullying a Dragon: The drawback of being a lone drifter is that you have no friends to give you advice when you're about to do something incredibly stupid - like smash a guitar over the neck of BRAUN FREAKING STROWMAN. Predictably, Braun was not happy about this, and he responded the next week by beating the hell out of Elias, dragging him up the ramp, and then returning the favor with a double bass. You know, the giant stringed instrument that's taller than most grown men. Becomes the dragon later on, when Baron Corbin tries to shoo him off the stage when he's trying to cut a promo, going far enough to cut his mic. Elias, understandably annoyed, responds by smashing his guitar into Corbin's back.

Wild Card

comment
Wild Card: Elias's morality appears to be proportionate to people's willingness to get behind him and let him finish his songs. He pulls a Heel–Face Turn when the crowd is going wild for him, and switches back when he's convinced that they've turned on him. Any attempts to interrupt him when he's trying to cut a promo will invariably end in either a match or guitar smash, regardless of who's doing it. True to his status a Drifter, he's far more independent with his endeavors, very rarely getting into any tag matches or interferences.

Casanova Wannabe: During his heel runs, he seems to have a bit of a horndog streak, which surfaces from time to time to varying degrees. During one time when he was interrupted by Trish Stratus, his condescending exchange with her indicated that he seemed to remember more that during her time there were bra and panties matches (rather than, say, Trish being a 7-time Women's Champion), which earned him a slap to the face; and there was the time at Fastlane 2019 where he stared too long at Lacey Evans doing her walk through the entrance ramp (which was her schtick at the time), allowing Randy Orton to hit him with a RKO.

After being fired from NXT, he came back the following week under a mask as El Vagabundo— the Spanish translation of his usual Red Baron.

Irony: The post-Takeover episode in Brooklyn had Bull Dempsey completing his repackaging by beating Samson in his new gimmick's infancy. Four months later, the post-Takeover episode in London had Samson completing his repackaging by decisively toppling Dempsey.

Cloudcuckoolander: He's not entirely there, given that he was coming up with lyrics in his head while Baron Corbin was trying to get him to leave the stage. At that point he outright admitted that he was lost in his own world for a moment. There's also the fact that he tends to appear strumming his guitar in the most unlikeliest of places, most of the time just a typical backstage area, but also one time atop a production truck.

Unexpected Character:invoked His jump to the main roster came out of nowhere and was not preceded by any sort of push or high-profile feud on NXT.

Breakout Character: Was brought up to Raw for little reason other than jobbing. The gimmick struck a chord with crowds and by early 2018 he become one of the most over stars on the brand leading to a feud with Braun Strowman who enjoyed a similar rise in popularity around the same time.

Catchphrase: "Who wants to walk with the Drifter/Elias?" "WWE stands for Walk. With. Elias." "Silence your cell phones, hold your applause, and shut your mouths." He omitted the "shut your mouths" part during his brief Face run.
