If youre a fan of WWE Tag Team Champions New Day, then you most likely enjoy nearly every time they take to the microphone. Their promos are what helped get them over with fans, and its why theyre one of the most entertaining acts in WWE today. Their group promo about how they would become the faces of the tag team division (We dont hide behind masks or facepaint!) was punctuated wonderfully with a preview of the next Wheaties cereal box cover that was eerily reminiscent of Edge & Christians five-second pose in a really good way. E&C helped revolutionize the tag team division during the Attitude Era, and while New Day isnt on that level, seeing them strike a pose like that definitely brought back good memories and made for a nice tribute of sorts. Of course, we got a nice bonus when Xavier Woods (who wouldnt waste a good hair day on Boston) joined the commentary team, showing that hes got a career on the mic after his in-ring days are over. Woods was exactly what youd want in a wrestler sitting in on commentary: he added to the dialogue, put over his charges and his opponents, and he was entertaining. You cant ask for much more.
Scott is a former journalist and longtime wrestling fan who was smart enough to abandon WCW during the Monday Night Wars the same time as the Radicalz. He fondly remembers watching WrestleMania III, IV, V and VI and Saturday Night's Main Event, came back to wrestling during the Attitude Era, and has been a consumer of sports entertainment since then. He's written for WhatCulture for more than a decade, establishing the Ups and Downs articles for WWE Raw and WWE PPVs/PLEs and composing pieces on a variety of topics.
