 Holy sh*t. A dude his size should not be jumping that high. He has the look Vince wants. Hes athletic. I think he has A LOT of potential. I know as the IWC we're more focused on these indy wrestling prospects (myself included) but Big E has "it." He seems to have a great personality if you follow him on Twitter or catch him on some of the WWE YouTube videos. I guess he either just doesn't know how to show it on TV or the WWE simply isn't letting him. His attire sucks though. |

Holy crap.
I've been a fan of Big E for the past few weeks, I've really liked his set with Del Rio, surprisingly good, I could see him turning face and fueding and maybe taking the belt away from Ziggler in the future. But yeah I agree, the guy definitely has it.

I'll always respect a guy who's built like a tank and yet moves around the ring like a guy much smaller.

he has 'it', I completely agree.
When I saw him debut, I wrongly thought big ass dude, clone, can't wrestle, is going to have no personality. I've become to accustomed to the guys like Big Zeke, Khali, Lashley, Ryback etc. who are are ambien on legs. Then I see this guy's twitter, I see his 'behind the ring' videos and I see him wrestle and he has slowly become one of my favourite guys on the roster.
I do think:
1) his attire is awful. A singlet does not help his obvious boobage.
2) I think he needs more mic time. He clearly has a great personality, but he's still new and it's going to take some time for that to translate to screen.
3) I want to see him face turn and I hope it happens before he loses too much credibility as the lackey of Dolph and AJ.

I really do hope so, Big E is just awesome both personality and in-ring.
But yikes he does need a new attire... a less revealing one. :X

I think Ryback is pretty solid for his size and structure. |

Call me when he does a shooting star press. Because doing an SSP for no reason is the only measure of athleticism. Big E has it, I agree. Great look (minus attire, which could do for a change), great athleticism, can put on a good match, and he's shown in NXT he has a lot of personality. He could have a very bright future. |

Given the right opportunities (particularly on the mic) I think he could be huge. I hope to see less of his ass in the future though.

Yeah he ain't bad. A lot better than guys like Vladmir Kozlov, and Ezekiel Jackson.

Maybe its just me, but I consider him one of the most boring guys on the roster. Then again, he doesn't really have space to show his full potential, what with him just being Ziggler's bodyguard.

Ugh...
EVERY week this topic comes up. I don't get it. If there really is an "it" factor then he sure as hell doesn't have it.
He seems so nervous just to be there. You can see it. I could hear it in his voice during that crap with AJ on Monday. He was scared to death while talking on the mic. You could hear it in his voice. It wasn't "acting" either although he pretended it was when he stumbled over his words.
I just don't get it. WWE is LOADED with great talent right now with tons of potential. Out of all the great guys they have I wouldn't place Big E anywhere near the top of that list of possible future champions.

I like him a lot, but I always find myself laughing when they try and put him over as intimidating. He's so short and ridiculous looking that I just can't take it seriously.

He's really good for his size. I've really been impressed with his matches the entire time Dolph Ziggler was out injured.
On the topic of the leapfrog....Kevin Nash did a shoot interview where he said he did a leapfrog in a match one time and Shawn Michaels was so pissed after. Shawn Michaels said that Nash was the biggest guy in the company and shouldn't be avoiding contact with ANYBODY and next time to just run the guy over in the ring.

Just because he's agile for his size doesn't mean he has "it"...I have yet to be the least bit entertained by him.

He's got a lot of potential, great face gimmick, I don't personally think he suits the heel role though, personally. I think the attire suits him, as the straps being pulled out is followed by the Big Ending, typically. The only downfall to Langston potentially could be if his character grows stale (as a face or a heel), he doesn't consistently improve on the mic (when given an opportunity), or even his size - he's such a big guy physique-wise, but he's very short. He sort of reminds me of Taz in that sense.
