Big E won the WWE Championship from Bobby Lashley, the WWE Universe is loving this new side of their champion. However, it was a lifetime struggle for Big E to reach where he is today.
Long before he was a main-eventer, WWE booked him in the mid-card or sometimes in the lower mid-card segments/matches. Eventually, things took a wild turn when Big E, Kofi Kingston, and Xavier Woods formed a new faction – The New Day.
