Braun Strowman On Bray Wyatts Return: "Morale Is Down When Bray Is Not
Around"

Posted: 11 Aug 2019 09:21 AM PDT https://www.prowrestling.com/braun-strowman-on-bray-wyatts-return-morale-is-down-when-bray-is-not-around/


Braun Strowman recently spoke with Sky Sports to promote tonights WWE SummerSlam, where he discussed Bray Wyatts return to action.

Morale is down when Bray is not around so its always good, hes a great hand
to have as far as talent working. The things he does as far as on the microphone, character-wise, in the ring, there is nobody who can match up
to him so having him back and adding him to the show is just going to add
more ratings and eyes to the product.

Then, (him) being one of my best friends and me having the honor of being
the godfather of his firstborn son, Bray and I are very close, he is like a brother to me so its great to have him back.

Well see what happens with him and Finn Balor but I would 100 per cent like
to be involved with him. He puts butts in seats and you never know, you may
see the Fiend against the monster that he made at some point.

Big E Discusses The Pride Of Seeing Kofi Kingston Be The First African-Born
WWE Champion

Posted: 11 Aug 2019 08:14 AM PDT https://www.prowrestling.com/big-e-discusses-the-pride-of-seeing-kofi-kingston-be-the-first-african-born-wwe-champion/


New Day member, Big E recently spoke with Uproxx.com where he talked about black representation in WWE and Kofi Kingston as WWE Champion.

On Kofi Kingston being the first African-born WWE Champion:

“So there’s a certain pride in that, in seeing Kofi in his rise, and being able to be proud to be the first African-born champion. For him to be able
to go back to Ghana was incredible. To watch that footage of him going back
to the place where he was born, where his people hail from, where he
himself was actually born, and to go back to Ghana, I think it’s really incredible, because you see the effect it has on kids, on people that look
like him, and his championship means something. In an industry where we acknowledge that it’s about entertainment, I think what he’s doing and what we’re doing as a collective if feels meaningful.”

On the representation of black champions in WWE:

“Yeah, I think as you alluded to, I think representation is important. I think the fact that we have so many fans who look like us, who want to be
able to see someone that looks like them on TV, and I was a kid, and I was
a fan of Goldberg. And that’s definitely … people are going to be fans of who they are, regardless of race or color or gender, but also to be able to have that, to be able to have a Ron Simmons when I was a kid, as the guy,
like, “Man, he’s incredible.” And he’s larger than life. And I think representation, being able to see people of all different backgrounds, of
all different races, be successful, and to be able to break out of the stereotypes. We have a history within the company that I think we need to acknowledge at times, where we had black and brown performers, and a
foreign performers, as well, who were put into these roles that were very stereotypical. And I’m not trying to cast judgment on anyone who played
those roles, but for us to be able to break out of that box of what it
means to be a Black wrestler and do something unique, I think it’s
important to us. So we want to be able to demonstrate that, “Hey, you can
be a Black man, you can like anime, you can play video games, you can have
all these different interests, and be unique and feel free to express
yourself in whatever way feels natural, and still make it to the heights of
an industry like pro-wrestling and WWE.”

On if he will help Kingston at WWE SummerSlam:

“I feel like he won’t need my help. Randy doesn’t have any goons. Bryan had
his goons, so we were out there when Rowan was around. But I think Kofi
will be able to handle himself. And I think that’s the beauty of a faction. And you don’t really see a lot of Baby Face factions. I think it’s unique. In fact, I can’t think of many long-lasting Baby Face factions. But I think there’s a certain confidence, hopefully we’re out there for him, or at least able to dab him up on stage and let him do his thing. But there is a certain beauty in knowing that, ‘Hey, we’ve got his back. We’re gonna support him emotionally and spiritually and all that jazz, but that he’s capable on his own.”
