‘Let’s Make a Deal’ First Look: WWE Superstars the New Day Spread Holiday Cheer
As much as we love Run-D.M.C.’s “Christmas in Hollis,” we think Let’s Make a Deal host Wayne Brady has just composed our new favorite holiday-themed rap: “Merry Christmas/Hope you hear me/Three big brothers comin’ down your chimney!”
Brady’s rap serves as a welcome for WWE superstars the New Day, who guest-star on the Dec. 23 episode of Deal, in which families play together to win prizes including American Girl dolls, a visit to Santa in Finland, and, of course, cars. As you see in the exclusive clip above, the New Day — who debuted in the WWE in 2014 with a gospel-choir-style gimmick but eventually transitioned into being some of the most popular bad guys on the roster — know how to make an entrance.
Composed of Big E, Kofi Kingston, and Xavier Woods, the New Day set the record for the longest tag-team title reign in the WWE, holding the belts for 483 days, a run that ended this past Sunday night. The group has elevated a number of seemingly random objects — unicorns, trombones, their own custom breakfast cereal — to cult status in the world of professional wrestling, with plenty of merchandise to go along with it.
The Let’s Make a Deal family episode airs Friday, Dec. 23. Check local listings.
