WWE Champion Big E has opened up about his personal experiences since winning the title. E revealed that he has been busy with work obligations every day since getting his hands on the championship.

Despite the hectic schedule, the New Day member is enjoying his current run and wants to make the most of this incredible opportunity.

"There have been some challenges," said Big E. "I've been very busy, and at this rate, I'm doing media about every other day....When I look at my calendar, we have red dots, and every day I have a red dot which means I've got a work obligation.... I didn't have my first full day off until the day before Thanksgiving. As busy as I've been, and it can be tiring and you have sleepless nights, I'm having so much fun. Doing all of these incredible things… the WWE Championship has been like a passport to me to open up all of these doors and I'm extremely grateful for that."

Big E is scheduled to put his title on the line in a fatal four-way match against Seth Rollins, Kevin Owens, and Bobby Lashley at Day 1. He has been a dominant champion so far and will look to extend his reign in the coming year.
