Last night on SmackDown Live, Shinsuke Nakamura and Cesaro accepted The New Day's open challenge for the SmackDown Live Tag Team titles. The duo failed to win the titles though, as Kofi Kingston secured a victory for his team with a Trouble in Paradise on Cesaro.

Soon after, Kingston and Big E were interviewed by Cathy Kelley in a backstage area. Out of the blue, Vince McMahon of all people appeared for a quick cameo. The Chairman took a look at the Tag Team titles and said: "very becoming." The boss then took off.
Kingston was ecstatic, and cut a short promo after Vince left.
We got the stamp of approval! You've seen it here first. He took his time to come over and say what's up to your boys because everybody wants to be down with the New Day!

The New Day had won the Tag Team titles on the November 8 episode of SmackDown Live, by defeating The Revival. With Xavier Woods out with an injury, we're bound to see more of Kofi and Big E for a long time, unless WWE decides to do the unthinkable and break them up somewhere down the line.

Abhilash Mendhe is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda with nearly five years of experience. He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
