Welcome to the Bust Open podcast, along with Justin LaBarr. I'm Jonathan Hood.

And on today's show, we talk about the end of an era in WW.

Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods are no longer in WWE.

We give our memories of the legacy of the New Day, right here on the Busted Open podcast.

This is the Busted Open podcast.

So I'll tell you this, Justinin when the new day first came out and i saw these

three brothers coming down and it the backstory is hilarious when they tell it about how

vintvindman is on a chair and then telling them how to to clap and how to keep rhythm and just and just it's amazing like Vince it wants

Vince wants to be in everything and so even to the extent of teaching three black guys how to

keep rhythm and timing all right by clapping like three preachers when they first came out

obviously it was a thumbs down. Like,

what is this? I was familiar with two of the three of those guys and Kofi Kingston, obviously,

and Xavier Woods and Big E's there. Like, okay, so I'm watching this and I said, well, this sucks.

And this is not going to get over because people were booing the new day. It was bad.

Because I was like, why can't this be themselves?

Why is this character?

But then Big E, I think, was the key to this whole thing because, you know, he's on the

microphone and he has that preacher sound, that Baptist, you know, fire and brimstone kind

of sound to him when he speaks on the mic.

I'm like, okay. So I'm watching the heaven flow of this thing. And, you know, eventually they

become baby faces and they seem like they're geared toward kids. And it's like, and it was tolerable.

And I thought, okay, these guys, how long will this last?
