11 WWE Questions You Most Want Answered (Oct 16)

6. Do You Think The New Day Are Going To Be As Successful As The Shield?

Asked by Kevin Alexander No. The New Day are getting over in a time when there isn't really much else fresh about Raw. In contrast, The Shield got over when Raw was being lit up by Cena versus Ziggler and The Rock versus CM Punk. The Shield just had another level of "it" factor from day one. Plus, they're plain better in the ring. That very first Shield match at TLC 2012 was one of the matches of that year. The New Day don't have that same in-ring quality. They're good, but they're not that good. Look at it this way, do you one day see every member of The Shield being a WWE Champion? Absolutely. Do you see any of the New Day being WWE Champion? Very unlikely. Big E maybe, but Kofi and Xavier have a ceiling.
