Big E Says He Is Still Not Cleared

Big E has been sidelined since March 2022 when he suffered a broken neck after landing awkwardly following a suplex by Ridge Holland.

Big E appeared on the December 2nd episode of WWE Raw, where he was kicked out of New Day by Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston. Big E sadly walked away from the group after being chastised for putting his new life before New Day.

Speaking on The Mike Broomhead Show, Big E was asked about his injury.

"I broke my neck, two and a half years ago, in three places, including my C1 in two places. I still haven't been cleared. Thankfully, I feel great and don't have any issues, nothing like that. Didn't need surgery. I was in a hard collar for three months. There are very real risks. We had a suplex that went wrong and I've been out since. I'm grateful to have no issues, no pain, nothing like that," he said.

Big E has been part of WWE Kickoff shows and is an ambassador for the Fiesta Bowl.

It is unknown if or when Big E will return to the ring.
