In the main event of Night of Champions, Sami Zayn defeated Cody Rhodes and Gunther in a triple threat match to win the Undisputed WWE Championship. After the bout, a frustrated Ring General confronted SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis backstage. Things got a little too heated, and the altercation turned physical.

While addressing the backstage interaction between Gunther and Nick Aldis on the Night of Champions Post-Show, Big E pointed out that the SmackDown General Manager was in great shape. He added that the 39-year-old has had an incredible wrestling career. Big E noted that he wondered if things would further escalate after the physical altercation.

“Nick Aldis. Look, this is a man who has not stepped out of the gym. I don’t know if he formally retired. A lot of us know who followed his career, this man has done some big things in this industry. I wonder if this is leading to something more,” Big E said.

You can check out his comments in the video below:

For those unaware, Nick Aldis is a former two-time NWA World Heavyweight Champion. He also held the TNA World Heavyweight Title during his time in the company. The English star is widely regarded as a great in-ring performer.

Aldis wrestled his last match nearly three years ago at ACW Bluegrass Con. He competed in a five-way battle for the vacant ACW Bluegrass Con Title in October 2023. Unfortunately, he failed to secure the win.

A week later, Triple H introduced Nick Aldis as the new SmackDown General Manager. It will be interesting to see if the fans finally get to see the veteran in action inside a WWE ring.
