Big E looks back on Rumble 2014 & happy he wasn't #30

[héad.casé]

- In the video below, Big E spoke about his first royal rumble experience and how he was thankful he wasn't in the number 30 spot in the 2014 Royal Rumble. That year fans were expecting Daniel Bryan to make an appearance in the match (after losing to Bray Wyatt earlier in the night), but Rey Mysterio ended up being the final entrant, which got all kinds of boos from the Pittsburgh crowd.

"I had the IC title at the time, I was number 29," Big E said. "Oh! This was the rumble where I was really thankful that I wasn't number 30 because people thought Bryan was going to be in the rumble and out comes Rey Mysterio, at number 30! And they booed Rey! Ya'll booed a legend! Disrespect. They booed him vehemently. Think about me? Me at the time? It would have been extra 'booie.' Yeah, that was the year Bryan didn't come out and they were real hot."

Nobody booed a legend, we booed WWE’s tone deafness.

Bryan not being in it sucked, but I won't lie, I thought Rey getting booed was hilarious.
