12-time champions are "old" and "stale" despite big win on RAW, according to WWE veteran Vince Russo (Exclusive)
This week's WWE RAW saw two title matches and a new champion being crowned. Fans also witnessed the return of Gunther after he lost the Intercontinental Title at WrestleMania XL. Upon his arrival, he was confronted by long-time rivals, The New Day. Vince Russo has now shared his thoughts on the iconic faction.
The Ring General announced his entry into the 2024 King of the Ring tournament before he was confronted by 2021 King of the Ring winner Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston. The New Day defeated Imperium's Ludwig Kaiser and Giovanni Vinci, leading to the heel duo's split.
On Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW, Vince Russo said The New Day had overstayed its welcome. He added that the 12-time Tag Team Champions were not contributing to WWE's product.
"Another case of people that have overrun their stay and mean nothing. Freaking New Day is done. Enough. How many years (...) I don't understand what the (...) Can you imagine baseball players playing into their 45s and 50s bro? It over. It's over with these people, bro. They're old. They're stale, move on." (27:40 - 28:07)
The New Day has been one of the most popular groups in the history of the company. They have collectively captured the RAW, SmackDown, and NXT Tag Team Titles 12 times.
