10 Wrestling Facts We Didn't Know Last Week (May 12)

6. Vince McMahon Danced To New Day's Entrance Music When He First Heard It

New Day Clap

Imagine being cramped into a small room and watching Vince McMahon jive and dance merrily to the strains of gospel music. New Day members Big E, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods don't need to imagine it, because they lived it right at the start of their run together.

Unhappy with the slow music WWE's production team had created for them, the trio handed workers some Kirk Franklin stuff. That more upbeat feel inspired WWE to create the groovy theme New Day use today. It was also one McMahon clearly loved the first time he heard it.

Laughing as they told Sportskeeda about such a wacky occasion, The New Day said they couldn't believe what they were seeing when Vince began stamping his feet and shaking his hips. That must have been quite the sight, but McMahon's enjoyment of the theme undoubtedly helped New Day's quest to be taken seriously in WWE.
