Original plans in WWE for a faction involving current Monday Night Raw colour commentator Byron Saxton have been revealed.

On the latest edition of New Day’s Feel The Power podcast, it was said that there was a faction with Saxton, Big E, and Xavier Woods in FCW planned but it never came to be.

Big E said:

“The plan was a faction of me, Bryon Saxton, and Woods when we were in FCW. We got to do it in promo practice. We were excited about it but it never saw the light of day on any shows. That was in 2014 which is what sparked the idea for the New Day. Honestly, if we had not done that when we were in FCW, who knows where my career would be or where Woods would be. Kofi would still be fine I’m sure.”

Woods added:

“The plan was the People’s Liberation of American Nationalism. It was a situation where we all tried to stay in one lane. I was the smallest guy in the group so I was the extreme hothead because I would be the one yelling. E was the muscle. Saxton was the calm and collected one.”

E also mentioned that the faction got called off because it was too similar to one that was already going with Camacho, Primo and Epico.
