The 4 underlying themes in Kofi Kingston's journey to WrestleMania 35

#3 The story of friendship and brotherhood

The New Day - the epitome of friendship and brotherhood

Kofi Kingston's journey to WrestleMania 35 is not just about Kofi's 11 years of hard work. However, it is also about the friendship and brotherhood shared between Kofi Kingston, Big E and Xavier Woods. The New Day has been an integral part of the WWE Universe for 5 years now and has seen the journey from 'New Day Sucks' chants to 'New Day Rocks' chants.

While the bond shared between the three has been on display every week through the tag team feuds they have been involved in over the years, their friendship was put to a real test by Vince McMahon on the March 26, 2019 episode of Smackdown Live. In order to give Kofi Kingston the opportunity to face Daniel Bryan at WrestleMania 35, Xavier Woods and Big E were required to face 5 other tag teams in a Gauntlet match.

For an opportunity which would not be given to these two individuals but to another person, Big E and Xavier Woods showed the ultimate example of friendship as they fought their hearts out to end up victorious in the Gauntlet match and make Kofi Kingston's dreams come true of headlining WrestleMania 35.
