WWE Extreme Rules saw Big E and Xavier Woods capture the SmackDown Tag Team Titles by winning the Triple Threat over Heavy Machinery and former champions Daniel Bryan and Rowan, while WWE Champion Kofi Kingston retained his title over Samoa Joe.
The New Day has defended tag team titles under the Freebird Rule for years now, but this is the first time that all three members have held a title at the same time. Kofi and Woods took to social media after the show and marked the big milestone.
Kofi wrote on Instagram, “We have talked about this moment for so long…and 5 years later almost to the day, we did it…. WE DID IT BAAAAAAYYYYBBEEE!!!! #AllTheGold #wweextremerules”
“Crazy what five years can do,” Woods tweeted.
