Then: WWE thought it'd be best for Big E Langston if he was tied to established main roster names like Dolph Ziggler and AJ Lee. Then, when Dolph's on-screen romance with AJ ended, Big E stuck around with Lee for a while. He played the silent heel enforcer type at SummerSlam 2013.

Now: Big E went on to experience a ton of success as part of New Day from 2014 onwards. He even became WWE Champion in late-2021, but that title reign was short lived. Then, disaster struck - E suffered a broken neck during a routine SmackDown match in March 2022.

He's been on the shelf recovering from neck surgery ever since. Fingers crossed he'll return someday soon.
