New Day rocks. You probably already know that, though.
Here’s some more examples of why, from their day at Washington, D.C.’s comics/pop culture convention Awesome Con yesterday (Fri. Mar. 30). See, Kofi Kingston, Xavier Woods, Big E and a friend, cosplay king Mikal Mosely, dressed up as (respectively) T’Challa, Erik “Killmonger” Stevens, M’Baku and W’Kabi from this year’s record-breaking Marvel movie, Black Panther, which rocks and is awesome all by itself:

It’s is perfect casting (tell me you can’t see E barking Tom Phillips down, then threatening him with a cannibalistic fate as a joke?) and great cosplay (yes, X put fake scars on his chest to represent the “kill” brands Michael B. Jordan’s character gave himself), but that’s not all!
Woods and Mosley headed over to the karaoke area for a stirring rendition of “Moving Out” by Billy Joel, while still in costume!

Take that, “Infinity War is the most ambitious crossover event in history” memes.
Just don’t expect this to be New Day’s gear for the SmackDown Tag Title Triple Threat at WrestleMania 34…
Also, for those who are commenting that we should have worn the black panther cosplay at mania instead. Copyrights are a thing kiddos, so let’s just enjoy fun things when we get them ? pic.twitter.com/L4iGpVVfzx
