The New Day took a little while to find themselves after their debuted as a group on WWE programming, but they have since gone on to accomplish big things in the world of professional wrestling.
Together Kofi Kingston, Big E and Xavier Woods took their careers to new heights as The New Day, but Chris Jericho revealed during a recent episode of Talk Is Jericho that the group almost had a very different name.
“That’s what New Day was. Their originally name was literally, this is not a joke, ‘Fresh Coat of Paint.’ They decided on New Day basically right before. If you think about, what does that even mean? Even ‘New Day’, what does that even mean?”
The New Day have since gone on to become 11 time WWE Tag Team Champions, and WWE has also named the group the greatest tag team in history. However, one can’t help but wonder if they would have achieved the same success as Fresh Coat of Paint.
