According to Dave Meltzer in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. Big E’s move to Friday Night Smackdown was a sign that he is no longer considered as a singles champion level wrestler.
>"Big E being moved to Smackdown permanently and put back with the New Day as a tag team looks to have ended his push as a singles champion level guy. The plan on Smackdown was to put him in with the New Day and he wasn’t brought over specifically to be an opponent for Reigns, although obviously that could still happen simply due to the fact Reigns constantly will need new opponents over the next year and they have depth issues when it comes to challengers and he at least was on top for much of 2021 so has some singles main event credibility."

Seriously... fuck this racist buisness. In every other sport we dominate but in the cope fake sport of course they try to keep us down. It would affect their white fragility.

>Big E bumped down the card The only way this could be a bigger win is if they cut this shitter altogether.
Nolan Price
Couldn’t make it with the wolves kid Should have developed a new gimmick instead of being the shucking and jiving coon he’s been for the last 8 years.
Plans change on a whim at WWE. People say it like its a meme for Meltzer to say plans change but it's literally true, just listening to podcasts like JRs and Prichards show how quickly they would change plans

Anyone with a brain could tell Big E was always a transitional champ. You don't need to pay meltzers dumb ass to figure it out.
Luis Cruz
>2 weeks it was only 8 days, not even two weeks
Nicholas Gutierrez

At least the road to Kofi becoming champ had decent booking, even if most people here are too contrarian to admit it. Big E didn't have anything worth watching
