The New Day will come back together after "temporary stop," claims real-life Bloodline member following emotional split on RAW
A popular WWE veteran has made a bold prediction about The New Day following the faction's emotional split on RAW. Rikishi believes that Big E, Kofi Kingston, and Xavier Woods will reunite someday.
On RAW this week, Kingston and Woods betrayed Big E in a shocking moment. The duo berated the 38-year-old star and kicked him out of The New Day. Kofi and Xavier have been receiving tons of hate from the WWE Universe on social media ever since.
While speaking on the latest edition of his RIKISHI FATU OFF THE TOP podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Rikishi opened up about The New Day's split on RAW. He claimed that the stable was bound to get back together somewhere down the line. The Samoan Stinker also stated that the segment almost brought a tear to his eye.
"I'm going to say temporary stop. Temporary stop. There's no way that this team cannot be able to be formed to come back. They definitely have earned their flowers, definitely smart kids, New Day. Every time when I see them, they always show respect. They're very respectful kids, good athletes, good workers, even better people behind the scenes. And so, to be able to see the closing of last night, you can see right there, they're just professionals. I mean, you almost had me crying seeing E, you know what I mean? They all just played off each other so well, that goes to show you a team that's been through it," Rikishi said. [34:25 - 35:25]

The New Day stayed together for a decade in WWE
Very few tag teams and stables in the history of WWE have had the longevity that Kofi Kingston, Xavier Woods, and Big E had. The trio formed the stable back in 2014 and stayed together through thick and thin for ten long years.
Unfortunately, the roller-coaster ride has finally come to an end. Big E is no longer friends with Kofi and Xavier and it remains to be seen how the duo fares as a heel unit on WWE TV moving forward.
