Former WWE Champion Big E returned to reunite with Kofi Kingston and start a feud with Sheamus and Ridge Holland. During a match on SmackDown, Ridge Holland gave a belly-to-belly overhead suplex to Big E, resulting in the former WWE champion landing on the top of his head.
Big E later suffered a broken neck, with fractures to his C1 vertebrae and C6 vertebrae, but no ligament or spinal cord injury. The WWE took him out on a stretcher to a medical facility and revealed he didn’t need any surgery.

Recently, Big E tweeted an update on his neck injury recovery. The New Day member wrote, “For those desirous of an update, my C1 apparently isn’t healing optimally. I’ll spend another 4-6 weeks in a brace in hopes that I can avoid a fusion. But don’t you fret! I’ve got a tremendous support system & what shall be shall be.”
