WWE Superstar Big E, Who Comfortably Benched 575 lbs, Was on the Verge of Paralysis or Death

Being immensely strong doesn’t make a human being immortal. Therefore, even when Big E has the ability to lift massive weights, he’s still at the risk of fatal injury and worse, paralysis.

A while back, ‘The Powerhouse of Positivity’ suffered a neck injury, where he fractured C1 and C6. The fractures occurred after he landed on his neck when Ridge Holland executed a suplex on him.

Now, a C1 vertebrae fracture is closely related to paralysis and death. Even though he didn’t require surgery, he hasn’t been medically cleared. Reportedly, doctors have informed him that he closely avoided paralysis and death.

He took to social media to express his gratitude for life and for understanding how precious it is.

Undoubtedly, it’ll be a while before he is medically cleared to return to the ring, if at all. A former medical staff in the WWE team had revealed that usually C1 injuries lead to the end of pro-wrestling careers.

Considering neck injuries are a leading cause for pro-wrestlers to quit, Big E should take all the time he needs to heal his neck before making a comeback.

Big E may not be happy with his current WWE run

When E became champion, the whole WWE Universe rejoiced. In fact, WWE honored his championship by changing their official Twitter name. It was one of the biggest celebrations of recent times.

Unfortunately, that run didn’t last long as he lost his title to Brock Lesnar at Day 1 2022, and exited the championship picture.

Since then, he’s been booked in a tag team run with Kofi Kingston, and that too, not on a path heading towards the tag team titles. This has been a point of frustration for The Powerhouse of Positivity as well as his fans.

It seems like he truly isn’t happy with his current WWE run, given his Twitter profile description. It’s a quote from the TV series, Seinfeld, from the episode called The Opposite. The entire line talks about how situations and opportunities haven’t turned out to be as expected.

“Why did it all turn out like this for me? I had so much promise. I was personable, I was bright…oh, maybe not academically speaking, but I was perceptive.”

It could become a matter of concern for WWE if Big E decides to jump ships. Considering his overall persona, charm, and personality, any other promotion would gladly bring him on board!
