It’s all about brand supremacy this Sunday at Survivor Series, and WWE Champion Big E is taking it very seriously.
Big E recently sat down with Anthony Sulla-Heffinger of Yahoo to discuss all things WWE. When asked about this Sunday’s Survivor Series pay-per-view, Big E says he hopes by the time the show is over that RAW can solidify its spot as the “A” show:
“The way I like to think about it, I want to be on the ‘A’ show,” Big E began. “I want to be on the best show. Especially as champion, that’s the goal, to put on the best show possible every week. I think Survivor Series is a chance for us to say, ‘Hey, we are the better show.’ I think of it in that sense. I do my best to do my part, which means going out there and putting on a banger of a match and representing my brand as best I can. It is a bit odd when someone spends four years on Raw and three weeks on Smackdown but now they bleed blue. I get how that can fall a little flat for a lot of people. I have spent the past three or four years on Smackdown, but my goal now is to help make Raw the ‘A’ show. It’s not something I take lightly, I think we have to continue to work on a regular basis to achieve that.”
Regarding his match against Universal Champion Roman Reigns, Big E hopes this is only the beginning of a series of matches against The Tribal Chief:
“One hundred percent. This is a huge opportunity for me to elevate myself,” Big E said. “There are some issues with us being on different brands, but we co-mingle at pay-per-views, so I think there are ways to build us up. You want to be in the ring with the very best. I hope it’s not just a one-and-done at Survivor Series. I think that if we can get back to it, I’d absolutely love that. He’s at the top and those are the matches that I want. I want to work with the very best. The beautiful thing also about me being new to the main event scene is now you have all of these fresh opportunities for matches we haven’t seen in the past few years.”
