Big E Talks Current WWE Role: “I Get To Be A Fan Again”

After suffering a broken neck in 2022, Big E has remained a part of WWE’s product by serving as a correspondent on pre-shows and post-shows for Premium Live Events. Speaking to Kevin Iole, the former WWE Champion was able to focus on the positive side of things despite his injury.

“The cool thing now for me in this role is I do the pre-shows and post shows for all the PLEs… I get to be a fan again. I get to cover the card and I have a lot of fun with that. So I really enjoy it.”

Like many fans as well as those in WWE, Big E is looking ahead to WrestleMania 41, set to take place this April in Las Vegas. Big E shared that he’s “really excited” about the upcoming two-night mega-show, and discussed The Rock’s potential involvement.

“The Rock was heavily involved last year at WrestleMania. We’ll see if he’s involved at all [this year.]”

Rock or no Rock, WrestleMania 41 is shaping up to be another huge event with two title matches confirmed, and two more set to be finalized at Elimination Chamber on March 1 (which will also mark Big E’s 39th birthday.) Whatever comes this April, Big E will have a blast covering the event, both as a member of WWE’s on-screen team, and also as a diehard fan of pro wrestling.
