Latest on Big E's recovery from a broken neck
Dec 22, 2022
Big E has provided an update as he continues to recover from a broken neck.
The former WWE Champion told These Urban Times:
"I have to get some more scans at the one-year mark in March and we'll see how everything is looking. We'll see from there. My C1 is broken in two spots, so we obviously have to be very smart about that. I was very fortunate. I want to make sure I'm making the best decision for myself. We'll see in March. I feel great, I'm really thankful for that. I don't have any nerve issues, no strength issues, no impairment whatsoever. Obviously, to get back in the ring to do what we do, I want to make sure my C1 is rock solid. Other than that, I'm very blessed. I feel great."
Big E has been out of action since he sustained fractured C1 and C6 vertebrae back in March following a Belly to Belly Suplex from Ridge Holland. Big E did not require surgery following the injury but doctors did note he might never wrestle again.
During his time out of the ring, Big E has remained active in WWE. He has been involved with WWE's NIL programme, helping to scout college athletes to see if they could transition to professional wrestling.
