For a few minutes, the usually-reserved backstage announcer Tom Phillips looked on bemused during the Kickoff show. It's hard to have missed the fact that The New Day were on the 'Social Media Lounge', many on Twitter have praised the reigning Raw Tag-Team Champions for their colourful performance during the segment.

One thing that may have been easily glossed over was some self-deprecating humour from Kofi Kingston, poking fun at himself and sharing some laughs with Xavier Woods and Big E about it all. Kofi's criticism of himself came about when New Day were chastising Phillips for not spending more time in the gym.

Woods decided to show his disdain by flexing a bicep muscle in Tom's face. Meanwhile, Big E just acted goofy in the background. For his part, Kingston made light of his own body by remarking that Phillips didn't have any pectoral muscles to speak of.

Pausing briefly, Kofi then said, "and that's coming from me". The wrestler's more sunken chest then became a focal point, Kingston jokingly tried to 'dance' his pecs.
