Nearly three months to the day of their departure, Kofi Kingston posted an update on his Instagram, which had been silent up to this point aside from individual videos from the pair thanking everyone for their success. The latest update was much different in tone, a video created by graphic designer and longtime gear designer for the New Day, Jonathan Davenport. It depicted Woods and Kingston as two unicorns chained under the big top while a bearded masked ringmaster started another show.

The unicorns broke free of their chains and sped through the circus, nearly running over the ringmaster. They passed another unicorn with a familiar haircut and a broken horn, Big E, who nodded at them as they escaped. As they did, they transformed into Woods and Kingston, their horns broken off and left on the ground.

Many have called the promotion the “Ringling Brothers” of professional wrestling, for better or worse, so it makes perfect sense to see the former New Day breaking out of a circus to go on their next journey. While it’s not stated, the ringmaster was obviously Paul Levesque.

The New Day’s final days in WWE and what could be around the corner

The last time WWE fans saw The New Day, they were paired up with Grayson Waller and mourning the death of tag team wrestling. They lost the gold to the Judgment Day’s Finn Balor and JD McDonagh back in June last year, and proceeded to claim that tag team wrestling in WWE was dead.

The pair got a few more shots at gold throughout their final months, but not much else. Their final match saw them fail to take the WWE Tag Team Titles from Damian Priest and R-Truth on the April 17 episode of SmackDown. The pair tried their best in the final year, but it felt quite directionless.

The New Day wasn’t the only tag team to be let go by WWE around that time, as the Motor City Machine Guns and the Wyatt Sicks were also released. Since then, fans have been eagerly waiting to see where these stars would end up. With Kingston’s update, it appears we’ll be finding out sooner rather than later.

Whether they head to TNA for one last encounter with The Hardys or AEW to finally get that Elite match, the future is looking bright for the legendary duo.
