Regardless of whether he expected a response, he got one:

In the video, Triple H and Stephanie McMahon invited Elijah to the August 3 edition of RawThat would give the youngster a chance to not only meet his favorite WWE Superstar, Stardust, but to also become a Superstar himself.

Well, when it was time for Raw to take place in San Jose this week, Elijah made the trip.

He signed a contract and took on the name "Drax Shadow." To go with his new name, the youngster told the crowd, "Don't fear the darkness, fear the Shadow."
