Former Intercontinental Champion Big E is undoubtedly one of the best Superstars in the company right now. He has proved himself to be a commendable worker and is destined for great things.
On last week’s episode of Friday Night Smackdown, Big E defeated Apollo Crews in a non-tile match and qualified for the Money In The Bank Ladder match. This marks the first time Big E will be competing in the match.
While speaking on WWE’s The Bump, Big E talked about having the Intercontinental Championship and the Money In The Bank briefcase at the same time.
“Very soon [I will win back the Intercontinental Championship]. Very soon. Why not SummerSlam? That’ll be a great time to reclaim it. Why not SummerSlam? Picture someone walking around [with a title and the Money in the Bank briefcase]. That’s the plan. Have that Money in the Bank briefcase in [one hand and the Intercontinental Championship in the other]. I wanna be weighed down like Deontay Wilder.
I wanna be so heavy going to the ring with titles with briefcases that if I do lose, I’d have the excuse that it was all the briefcases and the titles that weighed me down. Anyways, I wanna be draped. Just litter me with stuff.”
Kofi Kingston had previously stated he wanted to see Big E show off his ‘freak skills’ in the Money In The Bank Ladder match and now Kingston will be getting his wish. We will have to see if Big E will be able to win the match and also win back the Intercontinental Championship.
