Russo suggested that he would have booked the segment differently by allowing Woods and Kofi to put Big E over on the mic. Russo mentioned that Big E had only been champion for a week, and needed the spotlight on him to make him feel like a big star.

Big E had an impressive showing in the RAW main event

Big E held his own against the likes of Roman Reigns and Bobby Lashley during the triple-threat main event on RAW. Big E’s moment of glory was probably when he landed the Big Ending on Universal Champion Roman Reigns.

However, Bobby Lashley assaulted Big E with several chair shots to take him out of the equation. The match ended when Roman Reigns pinned Lashley after a big-time spear.
