On the latest episode of WWE RAW, fans heavily booed Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods of The New Day. The backlash erupted after the duo shockingly betrayed their fellow member Big E during The New Day’s tenth-anniversary celebration last week.
Kingston and Woods turned on Big E, accusing him of abandoning them. Big E, who has been sidelined with a neck injury since 2022, became the target of their frustration. Their actions infuriated fans, who loudly expressed their disapproval towards WWE RAW.
The tension started backstage when Kingston and Woods entered the arena. Officials, Alpha Academy, and Natalya ignored them, leaving the duo visibly confused. Later, Kingston and Woods encountered WWE Undisputed Champion Cody Rhodes outside RAW General Manager Adam Pearce’s office. When they greeted Rhodes, he dismissed them and told them they should be ashamed of their actions. The duo walked away, clearly confused.
Feeling isolated by their fellow superstars and backstage officials, Kingston, and Woods are seen giving an interview with Cathy Kelley. When she questioned their decision to berate Big E publicly. Kingston asks her to be neutral, and Woods insists they will explain themselves to the fans instead.
When Kingston and Woods entered the ring, the crowd greeted them with loud boos. They tried to justify their actions, but the fans drowned them out, refusing to let them speak. Frustrated, the pair decided to leave the ring, shocked by the hostile reaction. After the show, Kingston and Woods addressed the fans’ negative response.
