Live Session With Big E WWE Monday Night Raw Champion

I grew up on a different era of professional wrestling where people of color were not the mega stars and champions of the day. With the evolution of our world and definitive moves by the sport to be a driving force and example of inclusion, that has changed dramatically. Today, the WWE leads from the front to provide examples and faces that are diverse and powerful images for our next generations where everyone has a shot to be recognized as a champion and superstar. Their outreach into our communities as a corporate citizen touches just about every corner of the country and on many levels supports programs that quite frankly have impacted lives for the better. It was an honor to have a conversation with the reigning WWE Monday Night Raw champion Big E to discuss not only his journey but to hear the pride he has as a 13-plus year veteran of the brand and what it’s doing to further togetherness and inclusiveness in the world.

Check him out in action!

In this Live Session with the current WWE Monday Night Raw Champion Big E, he weighs in on his journey as an elite athlete, his role as one of the most visible personalities of the franchise, and his appreciation for the authentic manner in which the WWE presents and appreciates its POC athletes. Of particular interest is the fact that January 1st, 2022 will be the WWE’s inaugural Day One pay per view event which will heavily feature their POC stars and his excitement over the 2022 initiatives from the brand.

Some key highlights from his journey include:

Current WWE Champion on Monday Night Raw; airing Monday nights at 8 pm ET on USA Network
Former member of one WWE’s most prolific tag teams, The New Day
Former Intercontinental Champion, Raw Tag Team Champion and SmackDown Tag Team Champion
Co-host of The New Day: Feel the Power podcast
Former football player at the University of Iowa and former USA Powerlifting Champion

I also enjoyed hearing how he made it through the pandemic and continuously works to maintain an improve his mental health…Tune In!
