Big pop for Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston dressing like Big E. That was a nice way to keep their New Day stablemate in everyone's thoughts, and it meant 'Mania 38 had some E involvement. Seeing the guy go from riding high as WWE Champ on Raw to missing the biggest weekend of the year with a broken neck hasn't been easy.

His buddies repped him on Sunday night.

Woods and Kingston stared at the lights for Sheamus and Ridge Holland; the match went less than two minutes, so they weren't out there too long, but that entrance routine was the most important thing to both lads anyway. They badly wanted to show some support and solidarity with E after recent disasters.

There were real worries for E's health when Holland hit a calamitous belly-to-belly suplex outside the ring on SmackDown a few weeks ago. It might not have been the same as having Big E there in person, but New Day always put friendship first, and this probably put a smile on E's face.
