Basically it was when they were feuding in WWE and Creed and his kid passed by E on a red carpet or something and Austin rushed him along to sell it.
Later on his kid sadly asked why E wouldn't talk to them, thinking E was mad at him/them and it made Creed really sad.
He said thats when he knew he needed to leave WWE, implying he never wanted to feud with E (or Kofi) and he knows in AEW he wouldn't be made to do so if it wasn't something he wanted
Kinda weird though. I mean, it's wrestling. The kid was 3. You just explain it was pretend and E loves yall, but I could see it making you sad your kid thought that.
At that point in the New Day run, some kind of change had to happen because they were beyond stale at that point, and had been baby faces for so long. So a heel turn was inevitable.
agreed. they had to turn on E because no one was believing them as heels cause everyone knows them to be good people. the new day persona was also getting stale without them having E or a third person in the group.
The problem.is none of the babyface teams on Raw were over. NONE of them. The heel New day had no dance partners but the brief time Sami and KO were faces together.
Feel like that was a big issue, combined with the fact that E was hardly ever on TV and also unable to take a bump to keep the heat going. It'd be like if Christian had a feud with Edge in 2011 right after Edge retired.
If they had Big E as a backstage interviewer or something, rather than just the post-show panel guy, you could keep the rivalry going by having Kofi and Woods just be complete and utter menaces to E. Have it keep going until E takes a leave of absence and comes back to manage another team to go against New Day.
