Ah, The New Day. Is there anything these guys can't do? Well, yes, because even that dynamic trio couldn't rescue one of Raw's most dire sketches in quite some time. In Japan, Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson had been bad-ass maulers, yet they were turned into goofy comedians for the purpose of 'The Old Day' fun and games last September.

Bringing out 3 unnamed actors (or hobos, because there's no way these guys went to drama school) to the delight of nobody, Gallows and Anderson then proceeded to crack lame joke after lame joke about how The New Day were actually The Old Day. That's literally it, there was no other material to work with and the segment tanked big time.

The whole thing spanned around 20 minutes, this nonsense coming on the same program as excellent matches like Kevin Owens vs. Sami Zayn and Seth Rollins vs. Chris Jericho. Fans would have rather watched KO and Zayn 'fight forever' than experience such lame-brained comedy, if one could even accurately call it that.
