Kofi Kingston: The 'A Show' Is Whatever Show New Day Is On

Kofi Kingston comments on WWE draft.

Xavier Woods & Kofi Kingston were drafted in the fifth round on night two of the WWE Draft, keeping them as a team on WWE Raw. New Day has been part of multiple drafts throughout the years, including when Kingston & Woods were infamously split from Big E in 2020.

Speaking to Tim & Eli on Battleground, Kingston commented on the 2024 Draft.

“The draft position is always funny, man. I think, for us, it didn’t really matter where we went because we know the ‘A’ show is whatever show that we’re on. Not to toot our own horn, but the greatest tag team of all time, the greatest tag team on the roster right now, the most consistent, we’ve been doing it for a very, very long time. So wherever your boys, the New Day are, is where the ‘A’ show is gonna be. But needless to say, we are ecstatic about being back on Raw, staying on Raw, holding it down. We got a lot of new tag teams to mix it up with. But the draft is always super exciting, just for the fact that you don’t know where anybody is gonna go, you don’t know what the roster is gonna be like. But now that the dust has settled, as they say, I think that it’s great. It’s gonna be awesome. Raw is amazing. Totally stacked right now with all the people that we got on here. So I’m looking forward to seeing what we do and what we bring to the table," he said.

Kingston is taking part in the King of the Ring tournament and will face Rey Mysterio in the first round.

The match will take place at a weekend live event.
