What did Big E. think of Tony Hinchcliffe’s joke about him on WWE Raw?
Let’s find out!
Following the April 7 episode of WWE Raw in Minneapolis, MN., which featured Hinchcliffe on commentary joking about Michael Cole’s personality being as stiff as Big E.’s neck, the former WWE Champion appeared on the Raw Recap podcast and was asked for his thoughts.
Featured below is an excerpt from the interview where he gives his reaction.
“I guess at my big age of 39 years old, people will say what they want about you,” he said. “It has nothing to do with me. It’s not my business. Say what you want. He was given a mic. He was given an opportunity. People will feel how they want to. It’s just, there’s a lot of discourse oftentimes as a public figure. People will say things about you, whether they’re jokes, whether they’re not and that is their right. I think the one thing is, and I get I’m on here. It was said on the show, I’m supposed to talk, especially when things are mentioned about me, I should have an opinion on them. It’s just, it is tiring to have to weigh in on everyone’s opinion or whatever they say. Look, I’m not hurt. I’m good. I want the discourse to be had without me, honestly. I really have no desire to weigh in on this. I didn’t sign up for this. I wasn’t aware of this. He did what he wanted to. People signed off on it. It has nothing to do with me, truly.”
