The New Day makes a shocking debut to set up a massive match at NXT Deadline

The New Day is one of the most decorated tag teams in the industry's history. Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods are former Tag Team Champions, with Kofi being a former WWE Champion as well. They are also the second-longest-reigning tag team champions in WWE history. The duo finally has the opportunity to capture the straps that elude them.

Kingston and Woods shocked the WWE Universe with their arrival on the December 6, 2022, edition of NXT. The duo interrupted Pretty Deadly’s ‘Christmas Story,’ issuing a challenge for Prince and Wilson’s NXT Tag Team Championship.

The two teams will meet at NXT Deadline this Saturday. It remains to be seen who will emerge victorious.

NXT Deadline will stream on Peacock in the United States and on WWE Network elsewhere.
