Former WWE Champion Big E celebrated Philip Randolph in Black History Month
Big E recently took to Twitter and celebrated Philip Randolph, the first African American to successfully lead a labour union. The former WWE Champion posted a sticker picture showing Philip Randolph.
“A. Philip Randolph was the first African American to successfully lead a labor union. He also helped pressure President Truman into signing executive orders that banned discrimination in federal government hiring & ended racial segregation in the military. #BlackHistoryMonth“
A Philip Randolph was an American labour unionist and civil rights, activist. Randolph was a prominent voice in the early Civil Rights Movement and the Labor Movement.
His continuous agitation with the support of fellow labour rights activists against racist, unfair labour practices eventually led President Franklin D. Roosevelt to issue Executive Order 8802 in 1941.
Big E thanked fans for supporting during “disappointing’ title run
Former WWE Champion Big E acknowledged the fan support he’s received following his WWE Championship run ending and how he is back again to the tag team ranks.
35 year old won the WWE Championship in September when he cashed in the Money in the Bank contract on Bobby Lashley to win his first-ever WWE title. He successfully defended his title at Crown Jewel when he beat Drew McIntyre but eventually lost to Brock Lesnar on Day 1 in January.
It was also reported by PWTorch that the feeling backstage was upset with the way Big E’s run was treated, and since then, he has got a lot of support, and Big E even took to social media to thank his fans for their love.
“Man, y’all show me so much love & I’m deeply grateful. Thank you for positively shaping my life.”
Many fans were disappointed with how Big E’s championship run was handled and why he wasn’t given a more significant part to play during last month’s Royal Rumble match.
