Big E Criticizes WWE Ageism, Supports Female Wrestlers' Equality

News summary

WWE star Big E has voiced strong criticism against the ageism and sexism faced by female wrestlers, emphasizing the disparity in how aging is perceived between male and female talent. Speaking after WWE Backlash, Big E highlighted that women in their late 30s are often viewed as nearing the end of their careers, while many male wrestlers of similar or older ages continue to be prominently featured and respected. He referenced Becky Lynch's recent match against Lyra Valkyria as an example, rejecting the narrative that it was merely a 'passing of the torch' moment and arguing that female wrestlers deserve the same honor and grace as their male counterparts. Lynch herself has questioned the treatment of women in WWE regarding age and has continued her rivalry with Valkyria following Backlash. Big E's comments also reflect broader conversations in wrestling about extending athletes' careers amid advances in sports medicine, while calling for equal recognition of female wrestlers' longevity and contributions. His remarks have been widely supported by fans and media, underscoring ongoing concerns about gender equality in professional wrestling.
