WWE SmackDown Tag Team Champion Big E is bound and determined to be the man to dethrone WWE Universal Champion Brock Lesnar.

WWE’s YouTube channel has released this video of Big E talking about his past history with “The Beast” and how he believes that he’ll be the next challenger for Lesnar’s Universal Title.

Big E brought up how all three members of New Day have battled Lesnar in the past and he thinks with another opportunity, they would fare better. He gave the reason for their previous loss on being filled up on sushi and saki as he was 40 pounds heavier.

As a result, he thinks it made it difficult for him to do anything at the time. Big E thinks things will go much differently in their next encounter. You can watch the full video here:


Big E was referring to when Lesnar beat Kofi Kingston in a singles match and attacked the rest of the group back in 2015 at the WWE Beast in the East special on the WWE Network in Tokyo, Japan.

WWE has confirmed that Big E will be part of a Cross Brand All-Star Battle Royal on tonight’s episode of RAW. The winner of this match will challenge Lesnar for his title at this year’s SummerSlam pay-per-view event.
