During a recent interview with Sports Illustrated, WWE Superstar Kofi Kingston said Big E. would be a great fit for this year’s WWE Money in the Bank match. You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On how Big E would be a great fit for Money in the Bank: “E would be a great fit because he would bring a lot of things to the table you hadn’t seen before. There aren’t a lot of people that move like Big E that are built like him in a Money in the Bank match. What I love about Money in the Bank is the fact that you have so many people in the ring together that are different in size, stature and style. People forget this about Big E—he’s kind of a freak. Yes, he’s got all these muscles and he’s a strong guy, but he does so much more. He’s athletic, and he’s dangerously quick. There was a time in the locker room when [Xavier] Woods was joshing Big E a little bit, and E lunged over toward Woods and just yoked him up. It was all in a playful way, but I’d never seen somebody that big move that fast.”
On wanting to help his New Day teammates achieve bigger stardom: “One of my goals when I initially joined New Day, when Woods and E approached me about being in this group, I wanted to do something new—and I wanted to help Woods and E rise and do whatever I could do to help them achieve a level of stardom in this industry that they hadn’t before. So yes, E would be amazing in Money in the Bank.”
