Vince Russo was full of praise for The New Day's acting skills

Over a year ago, Netflix released an interactive film titled Escape The Undertaker featuring all three members of The New Day.

Vince Russo, speaking to Dr. Chris Featherstone, was full of praise for The New Day's acting skills on the Escape The Undertaker special:

"I watched this and I’m like, ‘Bro, these guys could legitimately do a movie together.’ They were unbelievably good. And, bro, I’ve gotta tell you, I never expected that in a million years, because of the light that WWE creative and the WWE writers have shed on them," Russo said.
