Kofi Kingston still thinks The New Day have a lot of work to do as they prepare for 10 years together.
Kingston joined up with Big E and Xavier Woods back in November 2014. They formed the group that became known as the New Day. They originally started as happy-go-lucky, preacher-type characters. However, the fans quickly turned on them and they became some of the most entertaining heels in WWE history.
The New Day has become one of the most decorated tag team champions of all time. In addition, Big E and Kofi Kingston have become WWE Champions. They are among the top teams in WWE history, but they aren’t done yet.
Kofi Kingston recently spoke with Metro about the New Day’s 10-year anniversary. The former WWE Champion called it “incredible”, and can’t believe the bond he has with his tag team partners.
He added that the group has a lot more work to do and won’t rest on their laurels in the future. They also can’t believe how far they’ve come together.
“It’s wild to see how far we’ve come, even from the people rejecting us. When you think about it, we came out and just told everyone to be the best version of themselves. That you can achieve anything if you put your mind to it.” Kofi Kingston said.
“People booed us out of the building and told us that we suck! What is going on in this jaded world that we live in where you tell people to be the best that they can be, and they say, “Nah, we don’t want to hear that, man, you guys suck!”‘
“It’s pretty incredible to have had that level of impact on the industry.” Kofi Kingston said. “I actually sent Woods a text this morning about how appreciative I was of him, of being my tag team partner. I never lose sight of how rare and special our bond is.”
WWE right now is the hottest it’s been in so long,’ he beamed. ‘The whole anniversary, we’re really excited to celebrate it, but at the same time, we got a lot more work to do.
