While he did not write anything public, Big E reacted to the news of his former tag team partners Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods departing WWE with an illustration posted on his Instagram Stories.
The drawing shows Kofi and Xavier walking out towards a bright light outside, leaving their New Day gear behind, including Woods’ King of the Ring crown.
Big E was “kicked out” of The New Day in 2024 when Kingston and Woods turned heel on him. Big E has been unable to compete since suffering a neck injury on an episode of Smackdown in March 2022.
Several wrestlers continued to pay tribute to the legendary tag team on social media as well. Both Kingston and Woods were very well liked by their peers behind the scenes and their departure has obviously affected a lot of people.
Kingston and Woods decided it was time to go after they were asked to restructure their years-long deal to conform with new TKO contracts. The duo had signed a new deal last year and refused to do so.
Big E continues to work for WWE as a panelist during WWE premium live events.
