The entire wrestling world looked on in horror when Big E broke his neck two weeks ago on SmackDown. The mishap happened after Ridge Holland botched a belly-to-belly suplex after which Big E landed on his head and broke his neck.

One former WWE doctor also suggested that Big E’s career could be over but the member of the New Day has not let any such news affect him and is in high spirits and has been giving regular updates to his fans on social media.

Many wrestling stars reached out to Big E on social media and now AEW star Powerhouse Hobbs sent his own message to the big man when he was on the Superstar Crossover Podcast. Hobbs said, “He [Big E] knows how I feel about him. I wish him a speedy recovery. I’m gonna keep texting you and blowing you up like I do. If you need anything, call me. I want to see you get back in this ring, man. So take your time, get healthy, and do what you do, brother.”

Meanwhile, the leader of the Alpha Academy, Chad Gable appeared on WWE’s The Bump and spoke about a lot of things including Big E’s injury. The former RAW Tag Team Champion mentioned that he didn’t find it surprising to see Big E be so positive as he is one of the most cheerful guys in the locker room.

“I’m not surprised that his attitude is still so positive because it’s almost what you expect from him, that’s how he is. As much as an incredible athlete and a performer and wrestler that he is, the impact he has had, especially on me as an individual and as a human being, is unbelievable,” said Gable. “Some guys are able to just exude professionalism and good characteristics as human beings just by watching them conduct and carry themselves and he is the epitome of that. I have nothing but respect for that man.”

Big E gives a positive update

Big E recently took to Twitter and gave an update on his situation. He said, “I’m just here to provide a brief life update. Right now, I’m walking around in my neighbourhood. It’s about 80 degrees. Not a cloud in the sky. [I’m] wearing this matching… Street Fighter inspired fit… And life is good. I’ve got breath in my lungs. It’s a beautiful day. Got my little taco meat out. That’s a little chest hair, that’s what we call it, a little taco meat. So that’s my life. That’s what’s going on in my life. My neck might be broken, but my heart is still in there, I think. Yeah, it’s in there.”
