The New Day recently appeared on Peter Rosenbergâs Open Late on Complex and spoke about The Big Show's initial negative response to the faction upon its formation. Below are their comments.
âBig Show, so when we were trying to get off the ground, Big Show would pull Kofi aside and say, âWhat are you doing with those two? Theyâre bringing you down. You should be in the World Title picture,â Big E said. âThis isnât a time where itâs like, âOh Big Show, itâs all fun and games.â Like, weâre struggling to get on TV and weâre thinking weâre gonna get fired.â
âYou had been a champion,â Woods said to Big E. âI had been on the road for three months doing nothing. So I had just come up from developmental like, âOh everythingâs shiny and new Iâm so happy to be here guys!â And then [Big Show] is just taking a dump on me to my face.â
âTo his credit, out of all the people who did say things to our face or said things behind our back,â Woods explained, â[Big Show] is the one person who came up and said, âI was completely wrong. You guys are awesome and youâre killing it and Iâm glad that you didnât listen to me.'â
