The New Day's gimmick is that they hold tag team titles for inordinately long periods of time, preferably breaking records in the process, and not just so [NAMES REDACTED] are deleted from the history books due to legal embitterment.

The jovial troika have another 100 or so days to go before they surpass The Usos (admittedly meaningless) tally with the blue tag straps, but with so little depth in SmackDown's duos division, it's eminently possible - and actually sensible - that WWE will keep the belts around their waists for precisely that period. Which means they should be set to relinquish in just over three months time - at Survivor Series, in other words.

The quality of encounters between this quintet has been good enough to justify dragging it out a little longer - though probably not 100 days. The New Day will retain, but it might not be squeaky clean.

Benjamin was born in 1987, and is still not dead. He variously enjoys classical music, old-school adventure games (they're not dead), and walks on the beach (albeit short - asthma, you know). He's currently trying to compile a comprehensive history of video game music, yet denies accusations that he purposefully targets niche audiences. He's often wrong about these things.
