Wrestlemania 32 basically temporarily killed my interest in WWE and I have not watched a PPV or much of anything since then (until watching a bit of Summerslam). My favourite things before Mania were New Day, Brock, Rollins etc.
I remember New Day obviously started out terribly, but then they turned it around and around the time they did their table for three, they were ON FIRE. They were beloved online and they were so funny! Their video interviews with Cole were great. I think being heels helped this, but the whole thing worked, they were great characters and they were funny-plus the trombone was genius. Then they turned face, and they were still okay, though they had definitley peaked earlier.
Then Mania happened and I haven't kept up (plus got interested in boxing). How are New Day doing? I don't see too many positive threads on them. Has their act grown stale? I suppose having to come up with material for multiple shows a week must be challenging after a while and the fans must get bored eventually.
So how are they doing? They were one of my favourite things earlier in the year. Are they still entertaining? Have they passed their peak? Could Big E be a world champion one day?

They haven't really changed their act at all since Mania, and they never really sell anything as a threat, their tag title reign has drug on and on, and they've lost twice to factions that broke up the following night.
They are charismatic catch phrase machines, which ensures crowd reactions will stay in their favor, but they've made for some boring TV since at least Money in the Bank.
Also, they did a really bad Final Deletion ripoff segment with The Wyatts that was unwatchable in part due to really bad production.

People are Burned out on their Schtick
Even when they add something new to their act, that new thing gets beaten into the ground as well. And it's not helped by the fact that There have been times where WWE shoehorns them into 3-4 segments a show. And other times they come out for a long promo segment despite not even being in a feud.
