10 Wrestlers Who Suffered The Most From WWE WrestleMania 37

7. Big E

Walking out in Raymond James Stadium, where he played his all-star high-school football game, meant a lot to Tampa boy Big E. It showed on his face as he hit the ring, rapped down the aisle by Wale, and it's a shame that WWE couldn't come up with something more substantial for him on the biggest show of the year.

E and Apollo Crews' Nigerian Drum Match lasted around six minutes. The duo maximised their minutes by beating the piss out of each other in a kill-or-be-killed sprint, bringing impressive levels of violence, but didn't have enough time to reach their ceiling together.

That was due to the interfering Dabba-Kato. Now going by Commodore Azeez, the former Babatunde (who has had more monickers than televised matches in WWE) trucked E, draped Crews over him, and cemented a new alliance.

"The loser was protected!" is a common argument in situations like these, but they are so frequent in WWE that this no longer applies. Tropes lose worth when spammed relentlessly.
