#5 King Woods reveals his creative philosophy in WWE

King Woods has been heralded by many of his fellow WWE Superstars as having one of the best professional wrestling minds on the WWE roster.

Both his New Day tag team partners Big E and Kofi Kingston have gone on record stating that The New Day faction wouldn't exist without Woods and his driving creative force.

When discussing his creative process, Woods explaining the importance of creating something new and not "rehashing" the same things over and over again for his character on WWE television:

"So, I feel like if you prefer to take the same thing over and over again, we're not artists anymore. We're just rehashing things, and that's fine. I'm not knocking that vibe, but for me, my brain feels at homeostasis; I guess I feel even, not off-kilter when I'm creating something."

King Woods has also been credited for some of the more unique aspects of The New Day, such as Francesca the trombone and some of The New Day's elaborate entrances and ring-gear.
