At least, let's hope it is.

There's nothing overtly awful about Harper and Rowan's reign of terror on SmackDown Live!, but their dominance with the doubles straps since claiming them at WrestleMania has somehow gotten a little...boring.

As recently as this Tuesday, the pair were forced into squashing some unnamed jobbers labelled 'The Triple Threat', but the fun of watching them batter goobers had disappeared before they'd even won the belts.

The New Day can even reclaim the belts through sneaky or nefarious means - their three on two advantage will be evened out by the Champions' sheer domineering presence, and the trio amassed a legendary record through shortcuts so comedic it resulted in a babyface turn. As they so often are, Kofi Kingston, Big E and Xavier Woods stand to be a jolt of life in a division as flat as the pancakes they throw out to the crowd.
