Young WWE Fan's Videos Go Viral, Sad News About Drax The Shadow And How You Can Help

- We reported last year that Triple H and Stephanie McMahon had offered then-8 year old Elijah a contract to become an honorary WWE Superstar during a dark segment on RAW last year. Elijah had been battling cancer for the fourth time and had submitted a Tough Enough audition video earlier that year. As seen in the video above, after signing the contract, Elijah revealed that his ring name would be "Drax Shadow," and his catchphrase would be, "Don't fear the darkness, fear the shadow!"

Sadly, Elijah and his family received news earlier this month that the experimental T Cell treatment he received had failed and that the tumors in his head have grown and are pressing on his brain. Doctors estimate that he has 6 months to a year to live. Elijah's dream is to get to go to Hawaii, and friends of his family have created a GoFundMe at this link to help make the trip possible. All money donated will be used for the trip.

- ESPN has an article here about 4-year-old Raylan Waters, whose impressions of WWE Superstars have gone viral. You can check out some of his work in the videos below:
