The drama surrounding The New Day’s heel turn on RAW has escalated beyond the ring, spilling into social media in a way that only adds more layers to the storyline. Big E’s emotional return, intended as a celebration of their decade-long brotherhood, took a dark turn as Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston verbally and physically betrayed him, using his injury and personal life as ammunition.
Kris Yim’s Reaction: Adding Fuel to the Fire
Kris Yim, Big E’s girlfriend and the sister of WWE star Michin, didn’t hold back on social media. Her furious tweets defending Big E and canceling plans with Woods and Kingston bring a personal and relatable aspect to the feud. Xavier Woods’ snarky reply about dodging her cooking (“bland a** meal”) was a low blow that stoked the flames further, while Kris’ clapback about Woods’ singles career highlighted the deep-seated tension.
This online back-and-forth draws fans deeper into the storyline, blurring the line between kayfabe and reality. The inclusion of Kris Yim, a figure not directly tied to WWE’s weekly programming, enriches the narrative, offering fans a fresh angle on the fallout from The New Day’s betrayal.
Big E’s Silence Speaks Volumes
Big E’s choice not to comment—yet—adds intrigue to the story. Whether this silence stems from heartbreak or a calculated move to strike back later, it keeps fans speculating. Should he eventually address the betrayal, it could become one of the most emotionally charged promos in recent WWE history.
What’s Next?
If Big E cannot return to the ring, WWE might craft an angle where he mentors a new babyface team to challenge Woods and Kingston. Alternatively, if he is medically cleared, his eventual in-ring return to confront his former brothers would be a monumental moment in WWE storytelling.
This betrayal has not only redefined The New Day but also created a platform for all three members to evolve as characters. The emotional stakes, combined with the personal jabs and social media drama, make this one of the most compelling WWE storylines heading into 2025. Fans will undoubtedly stay glued to see how Big E responds, both as a character and as a man wronged by his closest allies.
