WWE Superstar Bronson Reed has decided to take matters into his own hands after he failed to punch his ticket to WrestleMania. He has made a hilarious appeal to all the ‘Big’ stars in WWE for the Show of Shows on social media.

“Big” Bronson Reed took to X and expressed his disappointment about not being able to perform at WrestleMania. He brought the notice to the WWE Universe, pointing out that not only he but multiple super heavyweight wrestlers on the roster are not on the card. Therefore, Reed specifically mentioned Big E to host a special type of match made famous by his quote for the big stars.

The New Day member’s line became extremely famous when he said, “Big meaty men slapping meat.” It was his way of describing huge-looking stars delivering a classic match. Big E has been out with a career-threatening neck injury for almost two years now. He has since made several appearances on WWE programs, but his in-ring return is highly doubtful.

Meanwhile, the Aussie missed the Elimination Chamber event in his home country after Seth Rollins’ injury canned plans for a world title match. However, it was a blessing in disguise as his wife gave birth to their first baby. On Raw, he got one more chance to punch his ticket to WrestleMania, but Sami Zayn eliminated him from the gauntlet match. As of now, he has no plans for the Show of Shows. However, if he puts his ‘Meaty’ plan to work, the WWE Universe could expect chaos. 

Otis and Ivar voice their support for Bronson Reed’s idea

After Bronson Reed pitched his idea for a first-ever match at WrestleMania, fans were on board for it. In addition to that, two Raw Superstars supported the Aussie as well.

The Alpha Academy member Otis liked the idea and called Reed out, claiming that they had to take care of some unfinished business. The 32-year-old hasn’t wrestled much in 2024, as he has supported Chad Gable throughout his ups and downs. 

Meanwhile, Ivar seemed positive about this idea and told Big E to host this special event at WrestleMania. Ivar was over with the crowd in 2023 when his partner Erik, unfortunately, got injured. He failed to capitalize on the chance to wrestle in the Elimination Chamber match, as LA Knight defeated him.

Fans are already trying their best to catch Triple H‘s attention about this idea. It will be interesting to see if WWE goes through with this plan. Without a doubt, Superstars like Reed, Ivar, and Otis will get a chance to shine in a unique match.
