Guitar on a Pole match set for WWE Raw
The feud between Jeff Hardy and Elias will continue with a stipulation match taking place on Monday’s episode of Raw.
WWE has announced that Hardy and Elias will face off in a Guitar on a Pole match on Monday’s Raw. The match comes after Hardy and Elias have both used guitars as weapons in recent weeks.
Hardy vs. Elias at Hell in a Cell ended with Elias winning by disqualification when Hardy struck him with a guitar. Hardy stopped Elias from hitting him with the guitar and then used it himself.
After Hardy lost a Survivor Series qualifying match to AJ Styles on Raw this week, Elias laid out Hardy with a guitar shot from behind.
Elias returned to WWE television earlier this month and — though it was indicated that Hardy had been framed by Sheamus — blamed Hardy for being responsible for the hit-and-run angle where he was struck by a car on SmackDown this May
Hardy and Elias both moved to Raw in the WWE Draft.
Monday’s Raw will also feature Raw Tag Team Champions The New Day (Kofi Kingston & Xavier Woods) vs. The Hurt Business (Shelton Benjamin & Cedric Alexander) in a non-title match and Women’s Tag Team Champions Shayna Baszler & Nia Jax vs. Mandy Rose & Dana Brooke in a non-title match.
