WWE Superstars and members of The New Day, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods, shocked everyone by turning heel, causing fans and colleagues to turn against them. The duo betrayed their teammate Big E, who had tried to mediate and keep the group united.
They openly accused Big E of abandoning The New Day for personal reasons. Kingston mocked Big E’s neck injury, while Woods claimed Big E would never be cleared to wrestle again. Since their shocking betrayal, the duo have attempted to explain their actions. However, fans have consistently booed them out of arenas, refusing to hear them out.
Their behavior has also created tension backstage. Cody Rhodes confronted them, calling their actions shameful. Even Rey Mysterio, the locker room leader, refused to welcome them and told them to change elsewhere. This week, Mysterio suggested giving them a second chance if they apologized, but Kingston and Woods rejected the idea.
On WWE RAW, Mysterio’s request led Kingston and Woods to address the fans again. Kingston, who was visibly emotional, said the night was meant to be a heartfelt homecoming for him since his mother had traveled from Ghana. However, when Kingston approached his mother at ringside.
She dismissed him by stating what was wrong with him before walking away to the crowd’s cheers. Stunned by his mother’s rejection and the ongoing backlash, Kingston has now decided to call out WWE, expressing his frustration over the situation.
What prompted Kofi Kingston to criticize WWE?
After WWE shared a clip on Instagram featuring Kofi Kingston’s mother walking out on him, Kingston criticized the promotion for its actions. He demanded the post be removed, expressing his frustration for asking him to collaborate on the post.
However, WWE escalated matters by sharing another clip of the incident from a different angle, further aggravating Kingston. Kingston expressed his frustration once more, stating, “Didn’t I tell you to take the other post down? Instead, you have another clip posted? And you asked me to collaborate again?! Expect to see me on Monday.”
Now that Kofi Kingston’s mother also walked out on the New Day following their actions, it is yet to be seen what their reaction will be to the upcoming edition of WWE RAW.
