New Day recently appeared on Peter Rosenberg’s Open Late on Complex (via Wrestling Inc). During the interview, they spoke about a past incident with Big Show. Here is what they had to say:
Big E: “Big Show, so when we were trying to get off the ground, Big Show would pull Kofi aside and say, ‘What are you doing with those two? They’re bringing you down. You should be in the World Title picture,” Big E said. “This isn’t a time where it’s like, ‘Oh Big Show, it’s all fun and games.’ Like, we’re struggling to get on TV and we’re thinking we’re gonna get fired.”
Xavier Woods’ Reaction: “You had been a champion,” Woods said to Big E. “I had been on the road for three months doing nothing. So I had just come up from developmental like, ‘Oh everything’s shiny and new I’m so happy to be here guys!’ And then [Big Show] is just taking a dump on me to my face.”
