It’s for a good cause. WWE is a major company and as a result, they are often being associated with charity. They have a long history of working with various organizations for one reason or another and it is always cool to see them doing just that. With the resources that WWE has available, they are capable of doing some good things, and one of their individual wrestlers is doing just that.
Over the weekend, a series of protests and riots took place across the United States and a lot of damage was done to various places. A lot of the buildings and property that were damaged were locally owned small businesses which might not have the resources available to rebuild. Therefore, a pretty big name wrestler is trying to help out in a small way that he can.
Big E. is auctioning off some ring worn boots in an effort to help rebuild a Vietnamese restaurant in Tampa, Florida. The restaurant, Saigon Bay, was destroyed over the weekend with several thousands of dollars worth of damages. Big E. has put the autographed boots up for sale on eBay with 100% of the proceeds going to the family who owns the restaurant. There is also a GoFundMe page available if you would be interested in donating, which is linked below.
It’s a nice thought. Check out Big E.’s announcement and some of his funnier moments:

Opinion: Good for Big E. as there is nothing wrong with doing something for charity. These smaller businesses are going to be in real trouble already due to the Coronavirus and then they have something like this take place when they did nothing wrong. I know he can’t help every single one of them (almost no one can), but Big E. helping out one business and one family is very cool to see.
How cool is this of Big E.? How far can he go as a singles wrestler? Let us know in the comments below.
