I mainly mean, should Woods go off on his own. I think the dude has a ton of potential, but I don't think he's going any farther forward with his New Day character.
Kofi has already proven he can do really well on his own.
They can re-unite down the road if needed, but I just would like to see Woods try his own thing. He's one of the most prollic guys whose never had a real singles run

No. They are over as a unit. Hell, even Kofimania was fueled by the group's popularity more than Kofi himself imo.

It probably won't ever happen unless Kofi or Xavier leaves WWE and the other stays. Both of them (and Big E when he was still able to wrestle) also made it clear they don't ever want to break up as a unit.
That said, Kofi and Big E were WWE Champions without breaking up the team. The New Day isn't preventing Xavier from singles success.

I'm very surprised that Xavier still hasn't won a singles title yet. I guess there was that King of the Ring that he won, but all that did was get him an ass whoopin' from The Bloodline and his crown destroyed IIRC.

Should it happen? Yes. IMO it should've happened at least 3 years ago. Will it happen? Nope. Partially because Kofi/Xavier don't want to break the unit and partially because I'm sure they still make enough merch money to keep it going.

I don't want New Day to end, but I'd really like Big E to come back even if it's just a managerial role
They are not the same without him and never have been, they're actually really f***ing annoying when it's just Kofi and Woods lol

I'm not really sure if it matters to me one way or another, but I really would like to see Xavier Woods get a World Title run at some point pretty soon.

I don’t care if Woods ever wins the world title, but I hope he gets a IC or US title sooner than later.

I'd keep them together, but give them a new member that wasn't just a clone of Big E.

The problem with New Day is that they've lost that Big E feeling, whoa oh, that Big E feeling. They've lost that Big E feelin', now it's gone...gone...gone, whoa oh oh oh.

This gets suggested often, but the issue is that there isn't really any clear end goal for it. To what end? What does breaking the team up give them?
Honestly, especially if Big E ends up having to be retired, they can just ride it out 'til retirement.

Someday I want to see The New Day feud with a team whose members weren't even born when Woods, Kofi and Big E first got together.

They need to at least turn heel to freshen up their act at least if Big E is not joining them. They’re fantastic wrestlers but their act is stale

I'd be up for a Woods solo run, he's awesome and the best of the three. I hate The New Day, but I don't think they should split up.
Whilst I feel very sorry for Big E and his injury, Woods and Kingston are so much more tolerable without him being around.

No! New Day are one of my favorite acts. I like the idea of a group of best friends just being best friends. I'm all for pushing Woods to new heights, but I also want his best friend Kofi to be along for the ride.
Also no to a heel turn. As a general rule I dislike face/heel turns. They should be rare so when they happen they are special. I'm ok with a nuanced face/heel turn where the character is still generally the same person. But the 180 of 'You fans are all idiots' to 'Wow I'm so glad to have the fans love me'... no.

If Big E is never coming back then maybe it is time to end it. No turn or anything they just go their separate ways. Xavier wanting to win a singles title rights itself.
Kofi I’m not really sure what you do with at this point. But I’d definitely give him a push towards Rumble time so it looks like he might actually win it and give him a strong showing in the match where he makes it to the end but doesn’t win.

They should be a legacy act at this point.

Personally, I just want to see what else Xavier can do. Guy has a ton of personality, but has been doing the same character for 12 years now
