Roman Reigns has been on fire for the last year and Big E knows Reigns is the top guy in WWE.
Speaking on Out of Character, Big E was asked who he would cash-in on if he wins Money in the Bank. He said it would have to be Roman Reigns because that is who you establish a legacy against. Here is the quote, courtesy of Fightful:
“I feel like I’m cowardly if (I cash in on Kofi). Roman has been the guy. He’s been the name I’ve been speaking the entire time, this whole singles run. For me to go after Kofi or Bobby, it all feels murky. It isn’t taking away what Bobby has done at all, but Roman has had an incredible year and he’s the guy. He’s the guy at the top of our industry right now. Everyone has different opinions on who ‘the guy’ is, but to me, he’s easily doing the best work of his career and I don’t think that’s debatable. Why not go after the top of the industry? That’s how you establish a legacy.”
Big E and Roman Reigns have been kept separate since Reigns returned to SmackDown last year. Currently, Reigns is the Universal Champion while Big E is set to compete in this Sunday’s Money in the Bank ladder match.
