Big E has opened up about watching the WWE Royal Rumble match while injured, revealing whether or not he feels like he’s missing out.
The popular star hasn’t wrestled in almost two years, with Big E recovering from a broken neck he suffered in March 2022.
The ex-WWE Champion was in town for Royal Rumble on January 27, so got to attend the show as a spectator.
In an interview with Denise Salcedo, Big E was asked if he feels left out as he’s not able to compete.
Noting that he’s currently enjoying observing the product as a fan, Big E said:
“No. I think it’s really cool just to see the past couple years. As performers, we’re so often in the mold of what’s next. We’re always thinking about our career. But the nice thing is since I’ve been out I’ve been able to just sit back and be a fan of people and see kind of the lay of the land.
“It’s nice to be excited for people like Jade, for Liv coming back. Just so many of my favourite people. So for me, I don’t have any weird feelings about not being in myself. It’s just cool to root for my friends and people who I think are really talented.”
Noting that being back with WWE for Royal Rumble felt like a reunion, he explained:
“It’s really cool. For me honestly it feels like a big reunion because I’m not on the road regularly. So a lot of the people that I’ve known for quite some time, I don’t get to see all the time. So it’s just nice and especially for big events like this, for WrestleMania when you see so many people you haven’t seen in so long. It’s just nice.
“We are in many ways, a big travelling circus. So an opportunity for us to all get together again is really lovely. To do it just down the street from where I live. This is my community. I live in Land O’Lakes in the Tampa area. So it’s been beautiful to see all the love and excitement just around my city.”
Big E has shared praise for two WWE stars’ new project, which you can read more about right here.
