Big E Breaks Neck in Friday’s WWE ‘Smackdown’

Ettore Ewen, better known as “Big E”, suffered a scary, unplanned fall on Friday’s episode of WWE SmackDown that led to a broken neck.

Big E took a suplex outside the ring during the opening match of the show, as he and Kofi Kingston took on Sheamus and Ridge Holland.

As Holland delivered the suplex outside the ring, Big E hit the floor square on the crown of his head. He remained motionless for a number of minutes and was attended to by medical personnel before being stretchered out of the arena.
