7. Can We Cool It On The New Day?
The New Day is the most entertaining thing in WWE right now by a mile (unless youre really into HHH pretending he cant hear Kane on his cellphone). But when the company finds something special, they cram it down our throats like a Payday bar. They need to stop before its too late! Combined, there have been 14 episodes of Raw and SmackDown since August 31st. Big E has wrestled on 13 of those. Throw in a pay-per-view, and an MSG special, and thats 15 out of 16 events hes wrestled on. Compare that to Randy Orton who has wrestled six times in that time frame, or fellow over-exposed roster member Dolph Ziggler with nine. This pace is unsustainable. Its way, way too much of a good thing. As much fun as Xaviers trombone is, they are going to run this thing into the ground a year before they should have. If WWE creative doesnt believe that, just ask Damien Mizdow, the original Wyatt Family incarnation, Adam Rose, Brodus Clay, or Team Hell No.

As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at."
Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week.
