During the latest edition of his “Hall of Fame” podcast, Booker T commented on The New Day’s run and whether it has run its course after they lost the tag-team titles at WrestleMania 37, and more. You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On the booking of the match: “Hey man, I think that match went exactly the way it should have. You got a guy in there, a giant, you know, seven foot-plus. What can you do? What should you do in a situation like that? You can’t go out there and make this guy look anything but good in his first in-ring debut. To walk out tag team champions, only fitting.”
On what’s next for the New Day: “What does the New Day go from here? That’s the question. Have the New Day run their course? I think that’s the question we hear more than anything … how much longer? The thing is, let’s be real here. Who wants to see Kofi Kingston be a heel? Kofi’s a good guy. He’s a great, nice guy. I can’t see Kofi coming out and ripping somebody’s sign up like I would do, or anything like that. I can’t see Xavier Woods, a college man. Doctor, you know, acting like he’s a badass, a tough guy.”
On if the New Day should break up: “Well, I don’t know. My thing is this; I just don’t know where the New Day goes. Right now, Big E. is on an island of his own, okay? Big E.’s trying to break out. Xavier Woods, you know, in singles competition. Kofi Kingston, Kofi’s had a hell of a run. Kofi’s been there what, 13, 14 years? He’s been around a minute. I’m just wondering where does the — how much mileage is left in the New Day. I don’t think it’s much, I’ll just say that.”
