There are reasons to explain why The New Day are so consistently entertaining. Genuine friends away from the ring, Big E, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods all have a natural rapport with one another. The chemistry is instantly noticeable as soon as they step through the curtain, it's not manufactured. Those guys are having a great time performing and being around one another. New Day come across as different to everyone else on the roster, which is another plus point. By contrast, Team B.A.D were shoved together in the Summer months in order to introduce Sasha Banks to the main roster. Whilst there's nothing wrong with this, WWE must play to the group's strengths and let them find their own feet as characters. Copying The New Day's style won't cut it. During the 'Kickoff' show, Team B.A.D opened with a truly awful singing segment. Fans were quiet throughout the '12 Days Of Christmas'-inspired singalong. This was a blatant attempt to try and ape what The New Day are doing and transfer that excitement onto the female faction. It didn't work, so that tactic should hopefully be abandoned going forward.
