Who do you think came up with that cereal box entrance for The New Day at WrestleMania 32? Xavier Woods? Big E? Kofi himself? Nope, nope and nope. The group actually had something else planned, and they only found out about those big ol' Booty-Os when telling Triple H about what they wanted.

Kofi told Trips that they thought coming down to ringside inside a gigantic trojan horse dressed up to look like a unicorn would be cool. The prop's backside would then open up into a ramp that they'd dance down, making a spectacular entrance. Though Triple H liked it, he had something else in mind.

That aforementioned super-sized box of cereal.

'The Game' explained that WWE planned to monetize the gimmick, possibly in the lead up to the event. In order to do that, they had to use 'Mania as a testing ground for a fake cereal New Day had been talking about for a few months.
