This column has been a huge proponent of New Day for the better part of the past year. The trio ran roughshod over the tag team division for 16 months, turning a division that was a sideshow into a focal point while being one of the most entertaining parts of Raw.

But ever since losing the tag titles in December, New Day has been listless. They feuded with Titus O’Neil and now have planned to start their own ice cream line. That’s all well and good, but Monday, Bo Dallas stole the plans and ripped them up, sending Big E, Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston into hysterics. They freaked and wailed. Then after Kofi toppled Bo with the SOS, they poured Booty-Os cereal in Dallas’ mouth.

It’s tough to say, but New Day is getting staler by the day. They’re far removed from the Raw Tag Team Championships and don’t seem to care about reclaiming them. They’d benefit greatly from a change of scenery, where they’d have new teams to interact with, which would be great, because feuding with Titus and Bo Dallas isn’t cutting it.
