Booker T recently shared his thoughts on Big E’s title reign during an appearance on his “Reality of Wrestling” YouTube channel.
“I thought Big E had a good run and I thought the championship made him better,” Booker began.
“It was almost one of those things where I always say that when you win the title, it makes you a better performer, normally, just because you know that you’re the World Heavyweight Champion. You walk a different way. You feel a different way. I don’t know what it is, but that effect definitely got a hold of Big E, and you can see him falling into that role as being the WWE Champion. He believed he should have been the WWE Champion.”
“I thought he did a great job. We didn’t get a chance to see Big E have a whole lot of classic matches as champion or anything like that, but I think that’s where Big E has a chance to come back and capture it again and grow. I think Big E is going to be in this business for at least 5 to perhaps 8-10 more years, maybe, in this business, not the WWE, but in the business. He has a chance to grow over this time and become the performer he wants to be.”
