On the December 2 episode of WWE Raw, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods shockingly turned on Big E, who was making his first appearance on WWE Raw since he suffered his neck injury in 2022. In doing so, they seemingly kicked him out of the New Day.
Speaking on Talk’n Shop, Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson discussed the New Day split. Gallows noted that there was a lot of history for the story to tap into.
“I was thinking about this. If you really tell that story long-term, do you think, could this turn into the next Bloodline? Because you do have ten years of history with the New Day. But you don’t have a long list of family members to add to it, so who knows? It is interesting, though. It’ll be interesting to see how it plays out and how long it takes to actually play out. I don’t know how you finish this story, but wouldn’t you say, as we all know him on a personal level, Big E is an intricate guy, he’s a smart guy, he’s a well-spoken guy, he’s a good representative of any brand that you put him in front of as a face for, so not having him on TV is a negative. I think now that we’ve had him on TV, and we get another little taste of that, he has to plugged in somewhere. But as a babyface manager? Is that gonna be enough to get everybody where they need to be? I don’t know if that is or not. But you could see him on commentary, you could see him as an authoritative role. But I really think, I’m hoping this leads to we’re watching Big E throw pancakes in the crowd and get that big babyface pop,” Gallows said.
Anderson noted that there were a lot of places people wanted it to go, but it was up to Triple H. He then stated that Woods, Big E, and Kingston were all so talented that they would make any path forward entertaining.
“Here is a fact. With the New Day, you’ve got three capable top main event performers that can all get in the ring, handle it in the wrestling sense. You got all three of them that are smart businessmen. They’re all smart humans, they can wrestle, and they can verbally handle anything on the microphone. You’ve got three top guys right there. You can take that story any way you want. You could go every which way, and every which way I think will be entertaining and great because they’re all three so capable,” Anderson said.
During the podcast, Anderson also commented on Kingston and Woods turning on Big E. Check out his comments here.
