Current WWE Tag Team Champion Big E recently spoke to Brian Fritz of Sporting News about the New Day’s recent success and more. You can check out the full interview here and read some highlights below.
People not giving the team a chance at first:
“I get a lot of people’s lack of optimism at first. When we were first met with the idea, we looked at each other and wondered how we were going to make this work. I think the biggest takeaway is being patient. I think a lot of times with our fans, I think a lot of people were very quick to dismiss what we were. And I get why. I think often times it’s just a matter of being patient with an act; letting it evolve, letting it grow and seeing what it becomes. We were glad we were given enough time to make it work.”
The chemistry of the team:
“That’s what we always thought was that regardless of what the idea was, that people would see that these guys have a chemistry and a bond that you don’t see too often and we always want that to shine through. We’re excited about how far we’ve come. We feel like this is a group that can stay together for a long time and that’s our hope. It’s especially knowing that this came from our brain, this was our idea. There’s been a lot of ups and downs, things change, but we know that we stuck it out and being rewarded for it is a really good feeling.”
