Too bad there Merch selling crazy and u don't matter.

Nah in a perfect world, New Day would be doing a promo about how they beat every team in the division... and now they're retiring the belts to do something silly. Drawing major heat... And Enzo and Cass come out and set it off... Them dudes could get each other over so well. Promo and Ring Chemistry makes perfect sense. I'd even let E&C, win the belts in a false finish. Another ref comes out and says Carmella interfered , reverse the decision. Then they go over at Mania.
Doink the Clown was super popular too...doesn't change the fact that he sucked.

Doink sucked how? Matt Osbourne was over as a fukk, and really added layers to that gimmick. It was creepy, funny, clever, with a dark vicious side... Not to mention he was an incredible worker. Where did he suck!? He was great at everything.

I can honestly say I didn't like them when they were overly earnest positivity pushing lames and I never bought into the cornball goofy comedy act shyt either.
I still have the same low opinion of them I had from Day One.:sas2:

So... when something starts getting over and they change it, it's wrong... but when something gets over and they continue to push it, it's stale?

#ThisIsWhyTheyDontHireFans

:comeon:So you just ignore when the fans are barely participating while they're out there on their 10 minute promos now

You can't understand that they had a spark when they started, but now they're kinda garbage?

It was fun, but they changed it and made it too weird and too corny on some unicorn shyt.

It was better when they were just trolling and beating people's asses.

And the TSC heel turn begins...

Edgy don't mean good. Y'all can't book for shyt, the new day problem is they have no RIVALS.

Good heel needs a good rival. Common fukking sense.

Their promos aren't about shyt, that's the problem.

#ThisIsWhyTheyDontHireFans

Why would a team that started off lame as fukk and then got over as heels, and are continuously over every week, need a gimmick change... isn't this the same thing people complained about when Barrett got over with the "Bad News" gimmick and then they took it away, or when Cody's "facemask" gimmick got axed?

These guys give up on people faster than vince does, like give them a good rival and something to talk about in their promos and they will make sense again.. The problem is wwe is telling them to just go out there and talk, and throught the history of wrestling that has never been a good thing to do more than once and a while.. They got these dudes out there everyweek talking about nothing.. These dudes wants everybody to be edgy tweeners or they call them corny..

They need to give them a proper feud again. This struggle shyt with the Uso's/Lucha Dragons/Dudleys isn't doing any wonders for them. It's really about time for promo wars between New Day and Enzo & Cass.

this too. Jordan and Gable should fly through NXT too, but after a proper run with the straps.

Simple. Lose the belts at WM. Stay off TV till Backlash, come out and spoil the tag title match. Then cut promo on Raw with the "Now, we TAKE!" shyt and really run with it.

They need a pinch of edge, and to lay off some of the corny stuff, which seems like if has the WWE's fingerprints on it (specifically they're last 2 promos). Otherwise, they're still the best thing going in the WWE.
