Big E is no longer a rookie on the main roster of the WWE and has gradually received the push he deserved. Fans had been anticipating this moment for a long time and they finally got their wish fulfilled.

WWE is always inventive when it comes to a segment, whether it’s a dream bout or the crowning of a new champion. Every WWE Superstar’s aspiration is to be the face of the company and, after you’ve been chosen for the main roster, all eyes are on you.

When WWE signed new Superstars, they had to choose a new ring name for themselves. Big E, the current WWE Champion, also chose a ring name for himself.

Ettore Ewen is Big E’s real name. He is a native of Tampa, Florida. He was a former powerlifter who won the U.S. Open Powerlifting Championships in 2010 and 2011.

When people refer to Ewen by his ring name, Big E Langston, it makes him feel powerful. You may be wondering what the E in his name, Big E, represents. Eventually, he shortened his true name, ‘Ettore Ewens,’ to Big E. Because he is such a big guy, he is appropriately referred to as Big E.

In 2009, Ewens signed with WWE. He developed his wrestling talents as time went on. He improved to the point where he won the FCW tag team championship for the first time (now NXT).

Big E’s WWE Journey

In 2012, Big E won the NXT Title defeating Seth Rollins to become the second WWE NXT Champion. But, his NXT title reign was short-lived ending in 153 days.
