Can't Stand Hogan: The New Day

The New Day--Big E Langston, Kofi Kingston, and Xavier Woods--have no love lost for the Immortal Hulk Hogan.
The New Day--Big E Langston, Kofi Kingston, and Xavier Woods--have no love lost for the Immortal Hulk Hogan.

Why they can't stand Hogan: The Hulkster uttered racial epithets in a leaked video.

In a bizarre twist, the New Day were able to take an admittedly cheesy gimmick and parlay it into the biggest sustained push of any of their careers.

Charlotte Flair to return and wrestle a CURRENT CHAMPION?

Yet another ethnic stable thrown together by WWE, the New Day quickly used both their charisma and social media savvy--particularly on the part of Xavier Woods and his podcasts--to become crowd favorites. In many ways, the New Day exemplify the new generation of pro wrestlers, who don't take themselves too seriously and bandy about with fans on social media platforms.

Their beef with Hulk Hogan, however, does not stem from any 'Old school vs. new school' animosity. Rather, the New Day is rather miffed by Hogan's use of racial epithets on a leaked video with many other embarrassing moments on it for the Hulkster.

The New Day has not explicitly stated that they will not work a program with Hogan, but they also refuse to accept his apology for the remarks. Instead, they have adopted a 'wait and see' attitude. They want to see 'genuine effort' on the Hulkster's part before they extend the olive branch.
