New Day
Current WWE champion promises to redefine company with unique style, explains how he’ll do it
NXT North American Champion discusses plans to revolutionize the traditional big man wrestling style while maintaining championship aspirations.

Oba Femi recently outlined his vision for redefining the traditional big man role in professional wrestling. During a conversation with Sports Illustrated’s The Takedown, the NXT North American Champion detailed his approach to evolving the powerhouse wrestling style.
Femi shared his perspective on bringing innovation to the main roster:
I want to take what I’ve done here in NXT, and that is redefine what the big man style is, and I plan to take it up there and throw it in the mix. I think I’ve done a good job of putting a spin on what the typical big man is. I’ve shown that the typical big man – the new big man, let’s call it that, the new big man is a talker, the new big man is a thinker, and the new big man moves fast. I’m changing the perception of what that is. I hope that I can go to the main roster and show that to the world on a bigger platform than NXT. I love NXT to death. NXT is doing very well for itself. It’s going up in viewers, and it gets viewers every year, but the main roster is the bigger audience.
Championship Aspirations and Brand Development
While focused on evolution, Femi remains committed to elevating NXT’s status. Speaking with The Ringer Wrestling Worldwide, he discussed his immediate goals within the developmental brand:
Yes. I mean, everyone does. Now we’re trying to make NXT maybe a third brand by implementing the transfer portal. I grew up watching Smackdown and Raw, and from my general understanding of progression in the game, you go from developmental to the main roster, and for that reason alone, yes, I would jump through the window tomorrow. But I also feel like I have a part to play in elevating what NXT is seen as today. That’s why I want to win the NXT Championship and represent this brand, be the top guy, and show that professional wrestling is still a sport and all that.
The North American Champion also shared his vision for potential championship merchandise, suggesting designs incorporating beads and maintaining the distinctive thick strap design of the current title.
Big E
Former WWE Champion Could Find Support From Real-Life Bloodline Member Against Major Stable
Recently ostracized by The New Day, Big E might seek revenge with help from Zilla Fatu, who expressed anger after Kofi Kingston disrespected his merchandise on RAW.

Big E has been outside The New Day for several months following his removal from the group. During this time, Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston have continuously spoken negatively about their former teammate.
A potential ally for Big E emerged recently in the form of Zilla Fatu, a real-life member of the Bloodline family. Though not currently signed to WWE, Fatu has been connected to the company through various reports.
The connection between Big E and Fatu developed after an incident on this week’s RAW. During their entrance for a Tornado Tag Team match against the LWO, Kingston spotted a fan holding a Zilla Fatu foam thumb and proceeded to remove it from the fan before throwing it away.
Fatu witnessed this disrespectful act while watching the broadcast and responded strongly on social media. The young wrestler vowed to physically confront both Woods and Kingston when he next encounters them.
This shared animosity toward The New Day creates a natural opportunity for Big E to potentially align with Fatu should he join WWE in the near future. Their partnership could take the form of a tag team or Big E serving as Fatu’s manager if he remains unable to return to in-ring competition.
This potential alliance remains speculative at this point, as no official announcements have been made regarding either Big E’s future plans or Fatu’s possible WWE signing.

Bianca Belair
WWE Confirms SmackDown Star for Raw, Teases Next Move
WWE announces SmackDown star Bianca Belair’s arrival at Madison Square Garden for Monday Night Raw, following her confrontation with Naomi on SmackDown.

WWE announced the arrival of SmackDown star Bianca Belair for tonight’s Raw at Madison Square Garden. The company shared a video of Belair arriving at the venue and asked fans what might be in store for her during the broadcast.
Belair confronted Naomi this past Friday on SmackDown, getting her to admit responsibility for the attack on Jade Cargill last November. The revelation came after months of speculation about who was behind the assault.
“What’s in store for @biancabelairwwe TONIGHT on #WWERaw?” WWE posted alongside the arrival video.
The EST was also present during last week’s Raw when she witnessed IYO SKY capture the Women’s World Championship from Rhea Ripley. Belair is scheduled to challenge for the title at WrestleMania 41.
Naomi replaced Cargill as Belair’s tag team partner following the attack last year. The duo held the Women’s Tag Team Championships until Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez from The Judgment Day defeated them last month.
Tonight’s Raw from Madison Square Garden will feature a steel cage grudge match between Seth Rollins and CM Punk, continuing their heated rivalry that escalated at WWE Elimination Chamber. Cody Rhodes is also scheduled to make an appearance at the show.
Big E
Big E Discusses The New Day Evolution In WWE
During a recent interview on X-Pod 97, Big E shares his thoughts on Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston’s heel turn and their revitalized presence in WWE.

Former WWE Champion Big E shared his perspective on Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston’s recent heel turn during an appearance on “X-Pod 97.”
Big E addressed how The New Day has adapted over time in WWE, emphasizing the importance of evolution in professional wrestling.
In this industry you have to evolve
Big E noted that becoming complacent after achieving popularity is a common pitfall in wrestling. He expressed pride in what the group built collectively while acknowledging the current direction of his stablemates.
I’m really proud of what we’ve built, as a collective, (…) but now, for better or worse, the wrestling world is talking about those two again
During the interview, Big E mentioned that Woods and Kingston have found renewed motivation following their character change. He also referenced their on-screen heel turn as a unique moment in wrestling.
I can’t think of any other turn that went the way it did
Big E also discussed the fan reaction he experiences when meeting supporters in person. Many fans express their disapproval of Kingston and Woods’ new direction directly to him.
I really feel like the community has rallied behind me in ways that are beyond humbling for me. I appreciate all the love, but the most part it’s a lot of, in person, people telling me that Kofi and Woods can go to hell
