10 New Directions For WWE After Day 1

9. Heel Turn For The Street Profits

WWE announcers typically foreshadow full-blown heel turns when they use language like, "They've shown a more aggressive side lately". Jimmy Smith, Corey Graves and Byron Saxton echoed that on Saturday, which likely means that The Street Profits are about to go rogue.

It's overdue.

The fun-loving babyface thing was only going to take them so far, especially when New Day do it better. Montez Ford is a natural heel too, and Angelo Dawkins works as an uncompromising, hammer-throwing force between the ropes. A heel turn would be great news for The Profits.

It's slightly disappointing that they didn't attack RK-Bro post-match at Day 1 - both teams went the respect route instead, but there's time to change that come Monday's Raw. Of course, WWE will have to be mindful that Raw's babyface scene isn't exactly booming in terms of tags, but...when did they ever worry about that sort of thing anyway?
