The legend in question was Big Show, who approached Kofi Kingston to talk to him about ditching the faction. Big Show dubbed both Big E and Xavier Woods as ‘idiots’, and added that The New Day was a sinking ship.

Big Show couldn’t have been more wrong about The New Day

The New Day went on to become one of the most popular factions in WWE history, and won numerous Tag Team titles. The faction’s hilarious antics made them a big hit among WWE’s young audience, leading to huge merchandise sales on a regular basis.

While associated with The New Day, Kofi Kingston got his shot at glory at WrestleMania 35, where he won his first and only WWE title by defeating Daniel Bryan. Kofi held the belt for around six months before dropping it to Brock Lesnar on SmackDown’s FOX premiere.
