Big E had to leap numerous hurdles over the years during his time in WWE as it was never smooth sailing for him. Big E found huge success on the main roster, as he won multiple tag team titles and then also the WWE Championship. He also contemplated taking his own life at one point in time

Big E is known for his power of positivity and almost limitless energy, trying to spread joy and cheer wherever he goes. Despite at, he had a very tough time dealing with mental health issues when he was younger.

The beloved WWE Superstar took to Twitter and responded to a clip from Ohio State University football star Harry Miller on the Today Show. In the clip, Miller explained why he needed to withdraw from a football career to focus on his mental wellbeing. Big E revealed that he wanted to take his life when he was younger.

“In my early 20s, I wanted to be famous so that when I committed suicide, someone would care. I never thought I could be free of the shear weight of my depression but here I am—alive and truly happy. Proud of you, @h_miller76.”
