A WWE veteran has made a bold statement about The New Day's current presentation on RAW. As per Hall of Famer Bully Ray, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods have more legitimate heat with fans than Dominik Mysterio ever did.

Last year, Dominik Mysterio was getting some of the loudest chants in the history of WWE. He was getting booed left and right every time he came out to the ring and took a mic.

Fast forward to now, and The New Day has seemingly unseated Dirty Dom when it comes to nuclear heel heat. Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods recently turned on their longtime tag team partner and best friend, Big E, which was shocking and horrifying to the fans. Since then, the two superstars have been receiving massive amounts of hateful messages on social media and are being loudly booed every single week on RAW.

Bully Ray, Hall of Famer, put up a bold tweet during tonight's episode of RAW.

"The New Day have more legit heat than Dom had. #WWERaw," the veteran wrote.

Kofi, Woods, and Big E have been babyfaces for the better part of their careers. In 2019, the three stars were the biggest babyfaces in the company at the height of the KofiMania angle. A lot has changed since then, and fans want nothing to do with Kofi and Woods.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
