Wrestling isn’t ballet, and unfortunately injuries do happen from time to time. Back in April during an episode of SmackDown, Big E suffered a broken neck and he’s been out of action ever since.
Road Dogg recently shared an update on Big E’s status during his Oh You Didn’t Know? podcast and he noted that Big E seems to be doing great.
“Big E’s doing well, talking about how blessed he is. I hadn’t seen him in a while, hadn’t heard from him. Just thinking about friends and family today and saw his number and thought I’m going to text Big E right now. He said he was blessed and doing great.”
Big E managed to win the WWE Championship when he cashed in Money in the Bank on Bobby Lashley in September of 2021, but Road Dogg actually wanted to put the belt on him sooner. The Hall of Famer revealed that he pitched a WWE Title run for Big E around the time that Kofimania took off.
“When I wrote SmackDown, I wanted him to be champion. I’ve said this before, I actually pitched Big E Mania and Kofi got the nod. And it worked, maybe better than it would’ve with Big E. Only time will tell if and when he comes back and they put the title on him. He can cut great promos, he’s a great guy, he’s always in great spirits. Just an honor to call him my friend.”
