This was...weird.

The briefest of features on Kofi Kingston's New England Patriots suffering a loss was as much to promote a Fox NFL broadcast as it was talk about the New Day man.

He'd taken a pounding on Twitter, it seemed, but did the show need to find the cruelest dig of the lot?!

In response to Kofi noting that there was "nothing left to see here", in came @SandDooly with the above burn that had f*ck all to do with football! WWE's booking did enough damage to Kingston without the show platforming his trolls.
