Former WWE Superstar Lars Sullivan has once again targeted Big E. and The New Day with controversial comments on social media, this time suggesting that Big E’s devastating neck injury was a form of “karma.”
Sullivan previously drew widespread criticism after taking aim at Big E. over the former WWE Champion’s support of the Black Lives Matter movement. In 2020, Big E. publicly spoke about systemic racism and inequality, arguing that Black lives were often undervalued within the justice system. Sullivan later responded in a since-deleted post, accusing Big E. of virtue signaling and describing the Black Lives Matter movement as corrupt, racist, and anti-white.
Sullivan has now escalated his attacks even further. In a recent post on Twitter, he criticized The New Day for kneeling during social justice demonstrations, claiming that they only showed support for what he described as “criminal” figures. He also referenced both George Floyd and Austin Metcalf while accusing Big E. of holding anti-white views.
The remarks became even more controversial when Sullivan brought up Big E’s career-threatening neck injury. The former WWE star implied that the injury was “karma,” a statement that has already sparked backlash from wrestling fans online due to the seriousness of Big E’s condition and the nature of the comments. He wrote,
“Why does the New Day only kneel for criminal pieces of s*** like George floyd? Not a peep about Austin Metcalf? Interesting how that works. Glad everyone sees the scam that was blm. Sucks what they did though. Big e is an anti white racist. His neck break was karma :)”
The comment immediately adds to Sullivan’s long history of controversy. During his time in WWE, he was previously fined $100,000 for offensive comments from message boards, including racist, sexist, and homophobic remarks.
Big E. has not responded to Sullivan’s latest post as of now. And being the coward he is, Sullivan has limited who can react/comment on his post.
