Kofi Kingston Doesn’t Believe The New Day Needs to Break Up

While speaking to Sports Illustrated, Kofi Kingston discussed how all the members of the new day want to be top-tier singles champions and explained that the group doesn’t need to break up to achieve that goal.

“All of us want to be top-tier singles champions. That’s the goal all the time. Now a lot of people think you have to break up to do that. We’re told, ‘You know, you have to go your separate ways.’ I think that’s the dumbest thing in the world. Why would we ever break up? We are stronger as three than we are as one. There is no need for us to break up.”

Kingston believes they could use the ‘Freebird Rule’ for even singles championships.

“We always talk about having the ‘Freebird Rule,’ or now the ‘New Day Rule,’ as singles champions or even with the Money in the Bank briefcase. That would be awesome, too. We bring a different element and aspect to the potential of what a singles championship run could possibly be. Our bread and butter is in our chemistry. We’ve all done singles careers on our own, and it’s a crapshoot whether you’ll go up or go down. You never know. But we feel like we have something very special between the three of us, so there is no need to go back to doing what we were doing.”
