Big E Addresses New Day Drama Ahead of 10th Anniversary Celebration on WWE Raw

The New Day is gearing up for their 10th anniversary celebration on the December 2 episode of WWE Raw, but things aren’t exactly picture-perfect for the iconic faction. Longtime members Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods have been butting heads in recent weeks, and tensions hit a boiling point following their loss to Alpha Academy on November 25.

Adding to the intrigue, Big E—who has been sidelined since a devastating neck injury in March 2022—hinted at being aware of the drama during the WWE Survivor Series: WarGames post-show. Appearing alongside Wade Barrett and Jackie Redmond, Big E acknowledged the ongoing friction but kept his comments cryptic. “I’m aware of what’s going on,” he said, without elaborating further. Speculation is now running wild about whether Big E will make a surprise appearance to either mediate—or witness—a potential breakup.

While Big E has stayed active on WWE PLE panels this year, his in-ring future remains uncertain. Fans are hopeful his involvement in the anniversary celebration could bring clarity to the group’s future. Whether the New Day will reconcile or implode on their big night remains a mystery, but the stakes are higher than ever for the beloved faction.

Also scheduled for the December 2 episode of Raw is the kickoff of a historic tournament to crown the first-ever WWE Women’s Intercontinental Champion. The inaugural match will feature Dakota Kai, Shayna Baszler, and Katana Chance battling it out in what promises to be a hard-hitting contest.
