WRESTLEMANIA 41: THE NEW DAY WINS WORLD TAG TITLES

THE NEW DAY ARE THE NEW CHAMPIONS!

At WrestleMania 41, The New Day (Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods) captured the WWE World Tag Team Championship, defeating The War Raiders (Erik and Ivar) in a hard-fought—and controversial—rematch. The two teams clashed just weeks earlier on April 7, 2025, where The New Day technically won by disqualification following a steel chair incident. However, due to standard rules, the titles did not change hands.

Tonight’s match was a brutal, back-and-forth war, with the Viking Raiders unleashing their raw power to dominate early. Erik and Ivar expertly isolated Xavier Woods, battering him with punishing strikes and using their size to wear him down. The Raiders looked unstoppable, but The New Day’s resilience came through in full force. Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods fought back with their signature speed and agility, using high-flying offense to shift the momentum in their favor. Despite the Raiders’ strength, The New Day found ways to outmaneuver them, delivering a series of near falls that had the crowd on edge.

Xavier Woods capitalized on a moment of chaos, rolling up Ivar and grabbing a handful of tights for extra leverage while the referee was distracted by outside interference. With the Raiders unable to recover, The New Day scored the pinfall, securing their third reign as WWE World Tag Team Champions in a controversial yet triumphant finish.
