“Day 1 was an incredible cross cultural event where we got to see the best from sports entertainment and hip hop come together. The best part for me was seeing the reaction from the Migos' fans in Atlanta. They looked just as happy to see The Migos be a part of the WWE as the Migos seemed to be doing it.” - Peter Rosenberg.
