Big E comments on his WWE status ahead of The New Day’s 10-year anniversary celebration

It has been over two years since former WWE champion Big E suffered a broken neck during WWE Smackdown. Just ahead of The New Day’s 10-year anniversary celebration on WWE RAW, Big E commented on his status as a wrestler in a Player’s Tribune article…

“You know that thing I said earlier — how I’m someone who spent his past not being able to picture a future? I can picture one now.

Which is ironic, I guess, since I broke my neck and can’t wrestle. But I’m at peace. And if that’s truly a wrap on my in-ring career……. I’m excited to explore the paths that are opening up for me in its wake. Whether it’s working for WWE outside of the ring, or it’s hosting, or acting, or voice work, or filmmaking, or so many other things. I feel like there are still so many parts of myself for me to discover. I feel like I’ve spent the last 10 years with Woods and Kofi on this amazing, life-changing project: trying to perform a version of wrestling that’s in the image of all the things we love. And now I want to find out how far I can stretch that project past wrestling. I want to see if I can actually create some of those things we love.”
