WATCH: Big Dom and Cooper DeJean show up to WWE Monday Night Raw at Madison Square Garden, get booed into oblivion
While the New York sports world continues its decades long nap, two absolute legends took a little field trip up the Jersey Turnpike on Monday. Big Dom and Cooper DeJean rolled into Madison Square Garden for WWE Monday Night Raw and the second they showed up on the big screen, the entire building remembered what pain feels like.
Cooper DeJean had a Philadelphia Eagles championship belt draped over his shoulder. Big Dom was wearing not one, but two Super Bowl rings. That is the kind of flex that should require a federal permit, especially in a city that has not tasted real football success since flip phones.

Now, there is a debate about what happened next. Was Madison Square Garden booing Cooper DeJean or were they politely chanting “COOOOOP?” Everybody knows the correct answer, and it is not the polite one.
New York is going to New York, and when they see someone else with rings and a playoff spot, the only reaction they have left is jealousy. That is life when your football teams have been on a fifteen year guided meditation retreat.
Cooper DeJean earned every second of that spotlight. Just twenty four hours earlier, he and Quinyon Mitchell put Detroit in a straight jacket.
On thirteen targets against the Lions, DeJean allowed only four receptions, forced two incompletions, picked off a pass, and gave up a passer rating of 9.1. That is not defense. That is a federal shutdown of an offense.
- 4 receptions allowed
- 2 forced incompletions
- 1 interception
- 9.1 passer rating allowed
Eagles defense delivers a biblical beatdown on Dan Campbell’s Detroit Lions
The Eagles are 8-2 and in total control of the NFC. The defense is suffocating teams. Detroit got biblical treatment and the very next night, Cooper DeJean is ringside at MSG like it is a victory tour.
The kid just keeps working and of course he does it with Big Dom next to him. When you are playing like the best young corner in football, you can hit the road, watch some wrestling, hold up a championship belt and remind New York that Philadelphia runs this region.
Call it the perfect follow up. A win on Sunday night. A road trip on Monday. Big Dom. Cooper DeJean. Championship energy in a building that has forgotten what that feels like.
