WWE fancies lining New Day up for a crack at The Usos because Jimmy and Jey are running their Tag Title record close. The current champs are on approx 465-ish days, and New Day hold dear their own 483-day reign. It won't be a shocker if that scenario headlines SmackDown soon.

Is it worth the effort? Probably, but there's such a seen-it-all-before vibe to New Day vs. Usos. How can they possibly make it stand out when these guys have worked countless times and even had "one last match" against one another on TV? It was booked that way, for crying out loud.

Enough is enough.

Also, Maximum Male Models came across as lowly jobbers here, and it looks like Triple H is a b*llock hair away from ending the experiment. That'd be a shame, because it's hardly like Mace or Mansoor would have much to do as singles.
