Big E. recently appeared as a guest on The MMA Hour with Ariel Helwani for an in-depth interview covering all things pro wrestling.
During the discussion, the former WWE Champion spoke about how the company has still been paying him despite being on the sidelines, as well as how there could be a non-wrestling role that could bring him back to television before he is physically ready.
Featured below are some of the highlights from the interview where he touches on these topics with his thoughts.
On WWE still paying him even though he’s out injured: “Yeah, I’m still getting paid, I have no complaints with the way they have taken care of me. I’ve been paid very regularly. My money hasn’t gone down at all. They’ve also helped me they sent me like a bone stimulator as well to help accelerate the growth of the bone. Medical has been there, they’ve done a great job. There’s been no expense either with my medical stuff. So yes, I’ve been taken care of for sure.”
On potentially finding a non-wrestling role so he can appear on television: “I think it has to make sense I’d have to be able to carve out a role that I think is that makes sense for me. So yeah, just because I’m not wrestling anymore, if that is indeed the case, that doesn’t mean that I can’t find a way to still be involved.”
