For the past few weeks, there have been several teases about The New Day breaking up. There has been a lot of miscommunication between the former WWE World Heavyweight Champion Kofi Kingston and his tag team partner, Xavier Woods. Both have had several arguments with each other and there were also a few instances where it seemed like Woods was going to turn on his long-time partner and friend Kingston.
While speaking to Scott Fishman for TV Insider, The New Day’s Xavier Woods shared his thoughts on the current storyline and the potential breakup of the faction. Woods mentioned that friends and family fight. He believes both are mature adults and although there are disagreements, the duo will stick together.
“Sometimes brothers fight. Family fights. It’s just crazy that it has taken this long to start having a disagreement. Normally, with your friends, there are things that would come up. We had so much time with no real tension. It has been very interesting. Obviously, when you see it on TV, you think everything is imploding. That’s what you’re used to seeing in wrestling. It’s not how life is. I could argue with my brother. He can disagree with me, and we can talk about it.
“We’re mature adults living in 2024. If I can’t text him or call him and have a genuine conversation about a disagreement, then how strong is our friendship in the first place? It has always been in wrestling where someone gets jealous or someone accidentally hits someone and we’re fighting. The next thing you know I’m making someone bleed in the streets. If that happened, were we really genuine friends? What you’re seeing now is just a maturation of our brotherhood,” Xavier Woods said.
Do you think the New Day will break up soon?
