According to backstage sources, the reason why the New Day missed last Tuesday night’s episode of SmackDown Live is because they joined Mark Henry, WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels, The Miz, Maryse, Triple H and Stephanie McMahon at the Television Critics Association Winter Tour event in California.
Below is a tweet by Stephanie McMahon from the event:
