Former WWE Champion Big E speaks on being disappointed with his Championship reign
Former WWE Champion Big E recently did an interview with Sports illustrated (h/t Wrestling Inc) and openly spoke about his title reign admitting that it was disappointing to see his run come to an end the way it did. He also noted that there was no shame in losing to Brock Lesnar.
Big E started with saying a few words about Brock Lesnar and praising the new WWE Champion and then went on to say about the highs and lows of the sport and how it’s a motivation for him.
“I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t disappointed to see it end that way. And it’s not anything against Brock. Brock is a very special athlete, human and performer. There is no shame in losing to Brock Lesnar. I took a moment to soak in the sadness. The highs of winning, like at Money In The Bank or cashing in, those are incredible. But the lows suck, too. And that’s motivation to fuel me.”
Big E says that there is a lot to accomplish in the company
E continued in the interview and mentioned that he has reflected on the opportunities given to him while he was the champion and said that “there is a lot still to accomplish.”
“There is a lot that comes with being WWE Champion, and I took a lot of pride in that. Going on Breakfast Club and doing media throughout the country, I know all the good that came with this and everything we were able to do outside the ring, and there is so much more to accomplish.”
It will be interesting to see how E performs in the Royal Rumble and whether he could become the Champion again soon.
