Big E and Kofi Kingston are both on the injured bench, Xavier Woods finds himself alone in the New Day to be able to step into the ring today. Several times, Vince McMahon wanted to end the clan but the three New Day wrestlers have always fought to stay together, this is what Fightful reveals.
When Xavier Woods won the 2021 King of the Ring, the former WWE Chairman proposed thathe made a heel turn on Kofi Kingston because “it’s what a king would have done”, but Woods had firmly refused this idea and had done everything to prevent it from happening. A few months later, following Big E’s injury, Vince McMahon no longer wanted Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods to be called “New Day”, which lasted for a few weeks.
During the last WWE Drafts, Vince McMahon also wanted the trio to be separated, before reconsidering his decision and wishing to see Big E, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods together. Finally, the American source specifies that Vince McMahon had already proposed an idea to separate New Day shortly following KofiMania, but the clan had at the time fought to stay together… and it always worked until now.
