Since a potential title match for his tag team titles was left off of the card, Big E has mixed feelings regarding the PPV. He spoke to Uproxx about a plethora of topics in promoting the second-biggest PPV of the year.
Big E was injured after WrestleMania and had to take a few weeks off. In that time following the Superstar Shake-up, the SmackDown tag team division was left in shambles. Daniel Bryan and Rowan won the titles after The Hardy Boyz had to vacate them, but The New Day won the belts at Extreme Rules.
The WWE roster is deeper than ever and with two brands, it’s hard to get every set of titles on the PPV. While it would make more sense than having a random match like Dolph Ziggler vs. Goldberg, the fact remains that not every Superstar can be on every PPV.
After winning the titles at last month’s Extreme Rules show, The New Day have been embroiled in feuds with both Shane McMahon and his cronies.
The current champions defended the titles against the former champions, Daniel Bryan and Rowan, on the last SmackDown before SummerSlam. The match ended in a DQ and it became apparent that the champs wouldn’t be defending on the PPV.
Big E might not be in a match personally, but as he said, whenever Kingston is in a match, he and Xavier Woods aren’t too far behind. Will they be celebrating again as they did after WrestleMania 35?
