Kofi admitted that reading the list now actually made him feel angry.

“Like, I’m getting angry reading this list, man, because I can’t emphasize enough, we were three guys trying to make it,” Kingston admitted. “Do you know what I’m saying? And you’re trying to put us in a hole with these names. The House Of Purpose?”

Big E acknowledged that he was the first to try out the preacher voice, which is why they were given that gimmick in the first place.

“Yeah, I have to take some blame for that. So I was the one who started doing the preacher voice because I was just throwing stuff at the wall. Yeah, but I don’t know if I’ve ever acknowledged this before, but I’m the reason we had to do the preacher gimmick, I feel. I’m the reason we had these inspirational names.”

They also revealed that WWE wanted to try out Titus O’Neil in the group, but that as much as they love Titus, they didn’t want him to be in the group.
