Big E Has Decided To Cash In His Money In The Bank Briefcase To Get His Last Name Back
If you’ve ever listened to New Day: Feel The Power, then you’ll know how much Big E misses his last name.
During the intro of the podcast, Big E reminisces over no longer having a last name, longing over the name Langston.
As the newly minted Mr. Money in the Bank, Big E no longer cares about becoming WWE Champion or WWE Universal Champion. No, no, no. He just wants his Langston back.
“I have decided that, since I have the Money in the Bank briefcase, I have found there is a loophole and I want to use it to cash in to get my last name. Titles are important, they are, don’t get me wrong, but I think I’d like to use it (to get my last name). I’m gonna sit on it and think on it, but I found it in fine brought that it’ll allow me to get my last name back. I had my lawyer look over it and we celebrated. That is the victory, becoming whole again. Being world champion is exciting, but you know how bad I want to be Langston,” he said on New Day: Feel The Power.
Big E and Xavier Woods continued to joke that there should be a Last Name Money in the Bank ladder match, though they noted the ring would be very full.
At the end of the podcast, Big E said, “I’m gonna go to Stamford, I’ll have a camera crew with me, I’m gonna knock on someone’s door and say, ‘I’d like to cash in for my last name.’ They’re going to be confused and I’m gonna say, ‘Read the fine print.’ I’m sure a lot of people will be disappointed and it will hurt my career in many ways because it’s not the most effective use of the briefcase, but it’s how I choose to live my life. Don’t judge me.”
There you have it. Roman Reigns and Bobby Lashley are safe. To the man that took the Langston from Big E, you have been warned.
