Phillips, in your opinion, a bunch of guys who come out here dancing, swiveling their
hips and throwing breakfast food at the crowd is the best chance to be leaders?
>> That could be fun.
>> I second that.
>> Matter of fact Kofi's been a captain twice.
He's been a survivor and a winner on several different occasions.
Big E's been a captain two times.
A lot of Survivor Series experience on both sides for these teams.
Jey Uso start things off strong here against Kofi Kingston.
And Byron,
I'm curious to see how The New Day rallies here over the last few weeks have.

represent SmackDown Live.
>> We see Kofi back up to his feet, makes the tag-
>> My God.
>> And Jey Uso was the one who rolled out of the way of the spear.
>> Big E- >> My God, how is he still walking?
>> Right in the barricade.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Big E crashed and
burned like something never seen, it was right back up.
Pure adrenaline.

>> Wait a minute, going for the SOS.
Jey on the cover able to kick out at two and a half.
>> That was a close call >> Kofi is like a man without a partner

Same can be said for Jey Uso at the moment.
>> But Jey Uso down, Jimmy Uso also down somewhere outside the ring.
Xavier Woods trying to check on Big E at one point.
This is how much Survivor Series means to these two teams, guys.
