In an interview with WWE Deutschland, WWE Superstar Elias spoke about his younger brother Ezekiel. With a heavy heart, he said that Ezekiel was admitted to the hospital and is still in a coma after the vicious powerbomb by Kevin Owens. He added that his whole family is praying for his recovery. Moreover, the former 24/7 champion also said that he keeps himself away from the hospital to protect himself from breaking down emotionally. “Yeah I gotta be honest with you. The boss is in way more contact with him than I am. He wants to know like when’s he gonna be back, how is he, everything like that. But the truth is all the reports I get is that he’s still in a coma,” Elias said.
