Big E Reacts To ‘Cowardly’ New Day WWE WrestleMania 41 Victory

WWE

Big E has reacted to the New Day’s ‘cowardly’ World Tag Team Championship victory at WrestleMania 41 last night.

Since betraying Big E back in November last year, the New Day have become among the most hated members of the WWE roster.

However, last night, New Day captured Tag Team Championship gold for the first time in four years, defeating the War Raiders to become 12-time Tag Team Champions.

On the post-show, Big E spoke about Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods’ victory, calling the New Day’s victory ‘cowardly’.

He said:

“Look regardless of what has happened with us I can never deny how talented those two are. I spent so much time with those guys as you know it’s long been talked about, our brotherhood and all those things and obviously I don’t feel great about the way things ended. They’re extremely talented and they’ll go down as two of the greatest to ever do it in the tag team division.

“Cowardly, it’s cowardly man (the way New Day won). We started in 2014 and we talked about the way the industry is and how hard it is for certain talents, we always talked about doing things he right way in the ring and outside the ring and to see the way these men carry themselves now and the way the fans rightfully react to them, these are not the two men I thought I knew.

“Salute to them I suppose for winning a WrestleMania match, I believe it is their first WrestleMania win. But look at the way they did it. Is there any honor in that? Is anyone gonna celebrate a win like that? Is that a match that will be replayed in years and years later and we will stand on our feet and applaud them for their performance? No it won’t be.”

Last night’s show saw the crowning of three new champions, with Jey Uso becoming the new World Heavyweight Champion, and Jacob Fatu becoming the new United States Champion.
