WWE: What New Day’s Members Could Do After Break-Up

Big E
Of the three members of the New Day, Big E has the most potential for a major push down the road. Vince has always loved big guys, and Big E fits the bill in every way. Not only that, but he’s very agile for someone that weights 285lbs., as seen by his picture-perfect overhead Belly-to-belly suplex and his apron splash. He has also improved by leaps and bounds in terms of cutting promos and exuding charisma.
If WWE were to push one person from the New Day immediately following their dissolution, Big E’s the most likely candidate. He has already shown he can do moderately well in singles feuds, and can do quite well as either a bully hell or fun-loving babyface.
The only thing Big E would have to change would be his finisher. No matter how much he tries to conceal it, the Big Ending is an awful finisher that doesn’t do him any favors. It doesn’t have any illusions of pain and looks way too much like a ‘safe move’ for which it’s virtually impossible to suspend one’s disbelief.
Clearly Big E needs a big change in his regular repertoire if he wants to be taken more seriously as a singles wrestler.
That said, you can still expect big E to go after at least one title or another once the New Day disbands. He’ll likely end up pursuing either the U.S. or Intercontinental titles as a stepping stone for something bigger in the future.

But given how much he has improved, don’t be surprised if Big E ends up on SmackDown sometime this year, where he’ll stand out much more as a singles star than he would on RAW.
