Maybe they could try to explain to us who they are? Or why they do what they do? Sure, we know they like to dance and whatnot, but we don't know anything about their characters. We have no reason to like or dislike them. I find them confusing. Are you guys just super happy? Are you preachers? Are you some weird motivational speaker group that visits high schools (because that's what they remind me of) or are you high on cocaine and have too much energy. Their biggest problem is that the fans are indifferent, which is the worst reaction you can get. It's really corny and their characters aren't fleshed out at all. Hell, 3 Man Band had more character development. I feel like New Day could be a big deal IF they did it right. Doesn't even have to be heel (because everyone knows that all black men in wrestling have to be angry, racist, heels) but give people a reason to care one way or another. You have three talented guys together it makes no sense for them to be this uninteresting. Wow. So much this. Typical WWE lazy ass writing. They give New Day weeks of promo packages for their debut and then...nothing. No follow-up or character development whatsoever.

Big E turns on Kofi and Xavier. Monster heel. He eats them. He eats Ryback. He challenges Roman Reigns for the title post-Wrestlemania. He doesn't win because Black History Month is over.

It would probably be easier for me to make up a plan for what I wanted to see them do if I understand what it is they are supposed to be right now haha. I like the idea of the 3 of them together and I think Woods is a talented enough talker to carry them, but, again, what are they all about?

I have no clue, and neither does anyone else, what they are exactly.

I couldn't care less what happens to them.... and I blame WWE for that, like TRW said, what exactly are they? What is the point of the gimmick?
Define them as a group first, then let them dig in to some actual storylines. They basically just come out together and rocks paper scissor to see which two will actually compete... the 3rd does that extremely annoying bang on the ring thing to get the crowd in to it, then they lose anyway. Rinse, repeat.

Break them up! There gimmick is the dumbest thing I've ever seen. To me right now they're just wasting spots on the roster.

Heels, or tweeners... ...and tell us what this 'New Day' will mean for WWE... Agreed.

Turn them heel. Have them be pissed about getting overlooked. Kofi can cut a promo about never getting a chance after he beat Orton 6 years ago. Kofi goes over Orton in a short feud leading to a push that gives us some Kofi vs Bryan matches and build more credibility for the group as Kofi wins with the assist of the other two. This leads to Kofi vs Reigns on a throwaway ppv that has Kofi win, but the decision is reversed due to interference. New Day completely snaps and destroys Reigns. Ambrose comes out to save his "brother" but gets beat down too. Ambrose/Reigns/Bryan vs New Day with Big E pinning Reigns on Raw the following night.
Leads to the next ppv where the same six man takes place, but the Authority wants the belt off Reigns, so we get the stipulation from KOTR 2000(?) Where whoever gets the pin, gets the title.
I'd have Ambrose or Bryan get the pin on Woods. Leading to an Elimination Chamber with an actual storyline between all 6 guys, where Ambrose or Bryan retain.
Has flaws, but just off the top of my head. Give New Day some credibility, build a few main event or upper mid card talent and finally let Kofi show he should've been there a while ago.

I'd keep them fact for the time being just to avoid NOD comparisons. The very first thing they need to do is change their attire. They look ridiculous. Their entrance needs to be tweaked too. And I think making Big E the mouthpiece was a bad move. The guy doesn't have star quality. Not yet anyway. I never understood why he was there but New Day has changed my mind about him.
Honestly, aside from these small tweaks, I really don't know what to do. There's no reason these guys aren't bigger than they are. Kofi has consistently been one of the best workers on the roster, yet he's rarely been more than enhancement talent. Their biggest problem is WWE creative and not having enough interesting competition.

He has star potential but he needs to be heel.

Kofi is amazing, Big E will get there and Woods was fanatic as Consequences Creed in TNA. They have all the tools. They just need a watchable angle.

I'd change their group name to Yesterday and forget about them.

I'd have them stop doing their stupid rap during there entrance, keep them faces and let them be themselves.
