During this week’s episode of WWE Monday Night Raw fans saw AJ Styles and Omos defend the Raw Tag Team Titles against Elias and Jaxson Ryker, and the belts did not change hands.
At one point Ryker went to tag in Elias, and Elias pulled his hand away then got off the apron. While Jaxson Ryker was distracted, AJ Styles tagged Omos in, and Omos snuck up on Ryker then destroyed him.
Elias proceeded to walk up the ramp as Omos beat Ryker down in the ring. Omos tagged in AJ Styles, and Styles picked up the win with The Phenomenal Forearm.
Backstage Elias was interviewed and he said that Ryker is unhinged, and last week Ryker abandoned him when he needed help. He said that he respects Ryker, but Ryker is unpredictable, and that scares Elias. The former 24/7 Champion noted that WWE is going back on the road soon, and the thought of sitting in a car with Ryker makes him sick, so he doesn’t want to be around him anymore.

"We're very close to getting back on the road, live shows and millions of people wanting to walk with @IAmEliasWWE. But the idea of sitting in a car going town to town for hours at a time next to @JaxsonRykerWWE makes me sick. And I don't want to be around him anymore."#WWERaw pic.twitter.com/HbVkm9SMFZ
