10 Booking Steps For WWE Raw (Nov 28)
9. The New Day's Raw Tag-Team Title Reign Is Honoured
Back at SummerSlam 2015, The New Day captured the then-WWE Tag-Team Titles from The Prime Time Players in a Fatal-4-Way effort also involving Los Matadores and The Lucha Dragons. Since then, no team has been able to supplant New Day as viable champions. Their belts have also been renamed the Raw Tag-Team Titles since the WWE Draft.
This week on Raw, Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson will challenge for the crown. Last week, WWE made a big deal out of the threat Gallows and Anderson pose, even though The New Day have already beaten them previously. This title bout needs some more love.
Come Raw, New Day's lengthy reign will sit at 463 days. This means that they are only just over two weeks away from breaking Demolition's 478-day stint from 1988-1989. That deserves to be highlighted in a special video package.
Before New Day go up against The Club, WWE's production team could air a highlight reel showing special moments from the trio's tenure as champions thus far. Adding context as they race towards breaking a record is wise.
