- The New Day's Big E, Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston did not appear on tonight's WWE SmackDown because they have been on a promotional tour of India. They did appear in this video from India and reveal that they will be appearing at Sunday's WWE Fastlane pay-per-view. Original Fastlane plans had Kofi challenging WWE Champion Daniel Bryan until Vince McMahon brought back Kevin Owens to replace Kofi. It will be interesting to see if they get involved in the Owens vs. Bryan match on Sunday.
