- A source told Wrestling Inc that the reason the "A New Day" faction featuring Xavier Woods, Kofi Kingston and Big E was delayed was due to both the Ferguson, Missouri situation being all over the news, as well as Alberto Del Rio's controversial exit from the company. WWE felt as if having something that could be construed as a racially motivated story line was inappropriate and wasn't in anyone's best interest at the time.
The source also stated that there was "more than meets the eye" to the recent vignettes, but refused to elaborate further.
I am not sure this is the exact reason why but it makes sense, what do you think?

I just assumed it was Lashley calling them out on twitter...though he wasn't really right.
I bet they'll all be heels or something. A reverse Brodus Clay like situation.

Not the first time we've heard this, so I assume it's legit.

Maybe it was delayed because the gimmick sucks It hasn't even debuted yet... This kind of negativity is what makes the product so much less enjoyable for some. Putting down something before it even starts. Any glimpse of it and it's "Well that's stupid" or "that sucks". |

People crap on something before it happens and for all we know they could debut as heels. |

I dont think DVon's failed reverend gimmick from 2002 is going to work for 3 jobbers 12 years later. |

Their gimmick is not the same as D-Von's 2. They aren't three jobbers. Woods has jobbed since he got called up, but Kofi and Big E are solid mid-carders 3. Even if it was the same gimmick, what fails in one man's hand could be masterful in another's. All I'm saying is that non-stop negativity will make wrestling a chore to watch. |

I've been waiting for it to get off the ground, since I was there live in Miami to see Xavier confront the two after their tag match.

I'm all for new stables. Maybe it'll make a star?
Why not give it a shot? I'm mean, hell we have a good 2 - 2 1/2 HRs of garbage time to fill every Monday/Friday night anyways.

That sounds like complete BS.
Maybe the reason why Kofi,Big E and Xavier Woods took a little bit longer was because they were trying to figure out what exactly they can do with them.They have tried a few things from being a serious stable to a comedy one.It wasn't "Delayed".

More like A New Racist Stable. How? In what way? The vignettes were just three guys leading a choir. Because they're black it's racist? Please think before you post. |
