Although Big E is not currently wrestling inside of a WWE ring, he is staying close to the company and keeping an eye on the product.
Big E has been sidelined since he suffered a fractured his C1 vertebra and C6 vertebra on the March 11, 2022, episode of WWE SmackDown when taking an overhead belly-to-belly suplex at ringside from Ridge Holland.
Big E was backstage at this past Tuesday’s episode of WWE NXT that had the Heatwave theme. Ilja Dragunov vs. Trick Williams, NXT Heritage Cup Champion Nathan Frazer vs. Noam Dar, Dominik Mysterio and Rhea Ripley vs. Dragon Lee and Lyra Valkyria, Baron Corbin vs. Von Wagner, and Ava vs. Ivy Nile was among things featured on the show.
On Twitter, the former WWE Champion gave his thoughts on Carmelo Hayes, who retained the NXT Title over Wes Lee in the main event.
Big E wrote: “Melo is a STAR. Couldn’t be a bigger fan of @Carmelo_WWE as a talent & professional. Looking forward to the main roster main events & world titles.”
