In a supriseing turn of events, Big E’s much-anticipated return to WWE’s Monday Night Raw imploded into a maelstrom of controversy, leaving fans aghast and emotionally drained. The former champion made a surprise appearance to mark the 10th anniversary of his long-standing alliance, The New Day, alongside Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston. However, the celebration quickly gave way to a scathing attack on Big E’s character, courtesy of his erstwhile comrades.

Woods and Kingston’s initial excitement soured as their ire over Big E’s supposed abandonment began to boil over. They launched into a tirade about Big E’s career-altering neck injury in 2022, insinuating that he had prioritized his own interests over theirs. The duo’s vicious diatribe spared no one, scorched not only Big E’s wrestling career but also his personal life, implying that he had jettisoned friends and new girlfriend, Kris Yim, in pursuit of more “glamorous” pursuits.

Kris, clearly shaken by the vitriolic verbal assault on her partner, took to social media to vociferously defend Big E’s reputation, excoriating Woods and Kingston for their unwarranted attacks and questioning their motives. The vehement denials and scathing tweets sent by Kris came as a response to the duo’s rancorous remarks, which had been aimed squarely at her beloved boyfriend.

As the exchanges between Kris and the warring members of The New Day continued to escalate, Big E’s silence remained deafening, leaving fans to speculate about his potential return to the WWE ring. Was he planning to exact revenge for the surprise betrayal, or would he ultimately choose to move on from the drama? Only time would reveal the answer to this question.

The fallout from this surprise heel turn continued to reverberate throughout the WWE universe, as fans struggled to come to terms with the stunning betrayal. The future trajectory of Big E, Kris Yim, and The New Day remained shrouded in uncertainty, leaving everyone wondering what lay ahead for the embattled trio. As the dust settled on this tumultuous chapter in WWE history, one thing was clear: the drama was far from over, and the tension would only continue to build in the coming days and weeks.
