Why are Tyson and Cesaro together? Because they're white? WWE is....racisty I know. Just thought I'd play devil's advocate. Woods snapping into character in that interview was great. His little nod at Kofi cheating was great. This could turn it around. The explanation given was that they found common ground in not being given a chance so they joined forces

Kinda reminds me of the gradual turn of the Rougeau brothers. They went from annoying babyfacea getting booed to insincere heels doing the same act (although the shrinking American flags wouldn't work here).
This could actually be really good.

I was kidding about Cesaro and Kidd being race motivated. But I think we are accidentally proving the New Day was formed under the same pretense.

This is an instance where I think WWE just may have planned it to go this way. They made them sort of lame, underwhelming faces, having a good idea that it probably wouldn't set the world on fire. Then, turn up the stuff fans aren't responding to well, eventually driving the heat into a turn. It took a while to get here, but WWE did act as soon as the hate peaked. Yeah, it does kind of seem that way, since they had plenty of times they could have pulled the plug if it was a failed experiment. Maybe they wanted to do the heel stable with an edge thing, but have it be deeper than "we're sick of losing !this shit is racist!"

The dawning realisation on Woods' face when Kofi kicked Kalisto was nifty. They might make a Bo-style trio out of the New Day yet.

The gimmick still sucks - face or heel. It's a lame, offensive gimmick that serves no purpose and it still hasn't explained why these three suddenly decided, out-of-nowhere, to become a faction. Name a reason and that reason can't be 'the WWE thinks all black guys get along'. Why am I meant to believe if Kofi isn't clapping, he's snapping? He's been a career babyface that smiles when he loses and is always happy. There's been no character moments that make me believe he's a bottled up psycho that will snap your neck if he's not clapping. I hate this gimmick. Actually there's real easy way to explain Kofi snapping. One too many concussions. Would WWE have the cojones to play that card. A Brain Damaged Perspective

Los Matadores at least have a definable gimmick. New Day don't. They just seem to be three happy clappy smiley guys.

One of Heel Kofi's catchphrases will be "you kick my dog i'mma ignore your goldfish!"

I liked it a lot. The three of them playing smarmy obnoxious heels similar to Bo Dallas has potential. Xaviers fake happy expression at the end was hilarious. It's the first time I can say Xavier made a segment. THIS my friends is a new day.

Did everyone forget the promo's with the choir, the church organ theme, or you know the chanting(like church) in the beginning of their entrance. Or even the fact they are calling themselves New Day, a take off of being Born again. Are people really that dense?

People have mentioned the Bo Dallas vibe, so I say: why not add Bo to the group? He'd be the new black hart.

Seriously though, do you know how many widely different black churches there are? Are New Day supposed to be Baptists? Seventh Day Adventists? Promise Keepers? Even with the umbrella of "black guys from a black church," that's still outrageously vague. Los Matadores are at least enthusiasts of a specific sport. Their New Day equivalent would be "The Guys Who Work With Animals."
