Big E Langston Talks About Working With John Cena, Travelling With AJ & Dolph, Winning The IC Title

- WWE Intercontinental Champion Big E Langston recently spoke with The Miami Herald to promote his appearance in WWE 2K14 via the latest DLC pack. Here are some highlights:

Fans supporting him when he won the Intercontinental Title on RAW: "It's something I hoped was there, but was so rewarding when I got [that fan reaction], it was one of those things where I wasn't sure [it would happen]. After being a bodyguard, there was about a month-and-a-half period where I wasn't doing a whole lot, and I don't think I was on Raw very much. So I was a little worried I would lose momentum, but it was really cool. Even before that, getting 75 percent of the fan vote against Miz and Dolph [Ziggler] to get the match with Randy Orton, I've been so thankful for their support."

Being with AJ Lee and Dolph Ziggler: "Being with AJ and traveling with her and Dolph was really cool. One of the things I admired about her is how driven she is. She is focused and aware of her brand and the message she wants to get across to fans as well. So I've always respected that about her. She is very cognitive about what she does inside the ring and outside of it. I've also been able to learn from Dolph as well when we were together. Even now, he has been helpful. That first six to seven-month period of being a bodyguard was great because it allowed me the opportunity to ease into my time in WWE and to learn. It was a great start."

Learning from John Cena: "John's been great. I've been able to work out of his gym the last few years now and kind of pick his brain at times as well. He has given me advice and little things to make me better throughout the years. One of the things he told me 'owning the moment.' When you're out there, you really do have an opportunity to make a memorable moment. That's kind of one of the things I learned from him."
