According to PWInsider, Ezekiel is no longer listed internally on WWE’s roster. The character has been replaced by Elias.
The Ezekiel character has not been seen on television since August. He was power-bombed by Kevin Owens and stretchered out. WWE later provided an update saying Ezekiel would be “out for a long time.”
Following WrestleMania 38, Elias was introduced as Ezekiel and had no beard and new ring gear. He claimed he was Ezekiel, the younger brother of Elias. Owens then became upset and spent the next several months attempting to prove that Elias and Ezekiel were the same person. After Vince McMahon had resigned from WWE in July, the Ezekiel character started to bring up another brother, Elrod.
After Triple H was named head of WWE creative following Vince McMahon’s resignation, the Ezekiel character was dropped after losing to Omos on an episode of Main Event.
