Big E Believes Kofi Kingston And Xavier Woods Have A Chip On Their Shoulder Following WWE Exit

New Day (Xavier Woods & Kofi Kingston) are set to become free agents after their WWE departure at the beginning of May.

Big E was kicked out of the group in December 2024, but will always remain close off-screen wth Woods and Kofi.

Speaking to Kayla Becker on BZZR, Big E gave an update on the boys.

“They are doing well. They are kind of staying low and enjoying family time, right now. I want them to be able to tell their story, but obviously we’ve had a lot of discussions lately about what’s next. I don’t expect those guys to be retiring. I think they have a lot more to show. We had a really impactful heel turn; the follow-up wasn’t what we envisioned it, but those guys have so much to offer. They are so talented. They are going to go out there, wherever they end up wrestling, with a big chip on their shoulders and something to prove. I’m excited for them. Those will always be my brothers. The bond that we built in many ways was much bigger than wrestling. Those guys are family and will always be part of my life,” he said.

New Day have done conventions, but their next wrestling move is still a mystery.
