Former WWE Champion Big E will be in Phoenix this weekend to introduce a NASCAR event.
The New Day member has been sidelined after suffering fractures in his C1 and C6 vertebrae on the March 11, 2022, episode of SmackDown. The 36-year-old is an eight-time tag team champion and an Intercontinental Champion. He won the WWE Title in September 2021 but dropped it to Brock Lesnar at the Day 1 Premium Live Event.
WWE and NASCAR recently announced that Big E would introduce the race this Sunday. The official Phoenix Raceway Twitter account posted a video featuring the former champion.
