Absent superstar Big E opens up about returning to WWE following severe neck injury

WWE Superstar Big E recently opened up about his plans to potentially return to the ring following his neck injury.

The 38-year-old superstar sustained a severe neck injury on the March 11, 2022, episode of SmackDown. Since then, he has been away from in-ring competition. While E's future as a pro wrestler is still uncertain, he is gradually recovering.

In an interview with Shak Wrestling, Big E said he would be going through the recent scans and analyzing his situation before determining whether he would set foot inside the squared circle again.

"It's just a matter of listening to the doctors, taking in enough information, looking at my more recent set of scans, and deciding if the gamble is worth it." (H/T: CBS Wrestling)
