Seems like people are lining up now to create threads on how terrible the New Day are, but if they had debuted on NXT, exactly the same group with exactly the same mannerisms, would that have done them any favours?
We know that the NXT crowd can make any shit seem great and super over(hello, Adam Rose), but how do you think the reaction for the New Day would have been at Full Sail?

Is NXT going to be the new "If CM Punk did _______?"

A crap gimmick is a crap gimmick whether it's on NXT or not...

They should send them to NXT. Doomed on RAW/Smackdown. The Full Sail crowd will embrace them one way or another.

A crap gimmick is a crap gimmick whether it's on NXT or not... Emma moved her arms and had the entire NXT crowd doing it. Crickets on the main show. Adam Rose had the NXT crowd eating out of his hands. Hes being turned heel after about four months on the main show. The NXT crowd will pop to pretty much anything. |

Depends how they debuted and if it felt like a heel turn waiting to happen.
The Full Sail crowd may have been more willing to give New Day a chance but probably would have turned against them pretty quickly (they never got the chance with Rose).
Largely because Big E is the beloved master of the five count down there so it wouldn't seem right.

They'd have gotten Nation of Domination chants

They're no Vaudevillains, that's for sure.

It would have given them time to adjust the gimmick to the point where they became comfortable with it and connected with the audience (as heels or faces). Tyson Kidd is the prime example of someone who found himself during his tenure there and has become an excellent heel as a result and it might have worked here as well.

The internet would've lost their mind because their new in-thing was ruined by a shit stable.

I think they probably would've been booked like R-Truth's heel turn more than Men on a Mission 2014.

Meaning she was coming out to his music and not her own, so the audience never got that audio cue to do the dance. Adam Rose was ruined the moment they made his act all about The Bunny. |

I can't remember if it was. |

Theydve gotten a chance to develop something straight away and get some characters.
If Tyler Breeze, the Vaudevillains and Enzo/Cass had debuted on Raw, they'd be dead in the water and you know it.
