I guess Neville is getting dethroned for sure now. I thought Cedric would drop the belt by now. Also, I love playing the game of AJ-Watch.

I'm not sure who Styles drops the belt to. It comes down to one of two people...

1) They pull the trigger and have Joe beat him for the title
2) Miz wins #1 contender at Super Show Down and then wins the WWE title later from Styles, eventually leading to WrestleMania XXXV's WWE title match between Miz and Bryan

Those definitely feel like the planned eventualities. The only reason I can see them leaving AJ as champ is to have him roll through on a Randy Orton title feud.

You forgot how petty WWE is and they would be willing to have Cedric drop the title the day after he beats Neville's record.

Proven fact. New Day and Nikki Bella dropped their titles exactly a week after breaking Demolition and AJ Lee's record. No clue if New Day passed Demolition for any petty reasons, but Nikki passing AJ Lee was pretty much expected after AJ left without putting anyone over on her way out (much like her husband >_>)

From what I understand, the idea is for the New Day to be the superlative in every category eventually. As of last year, they were planning on the New Day eclipsing the record for most tag titles.

Speaking of AJ, I keep seeing all these reports about how people think she's going to appear at Evolution.

Her appearing at a WWE event would mean the end of her marriage. She's not doing it.

Btw I don't know if anyone heard the update on that lawsuit.

It was denied by the Judge and thrown out because s/he told the wrestlers' attorney to get rid of all the bullshit ridiculous claims. He did not, so they decided not to mess around with this anymore.

Two of the three members said they were planning to retire after the New Day gimmick ran its course, so I imagine they are going to get those titles very, very slowly.

I honestly wouldn't mind that too much if they went all the way with it. Make lemonade, ya know?

Instead they phrase the thing like that, then feature a tweet where Brie apologizes for injuring her, getting the worst of both worlds.

There was so much potential for Kofi winning MITB, and even just a couple week title reign would have been great. Although i t also could have led to a heel turn for the New Day if you wanted to go longer term with it.

My dream Brock mini-feud would have been

Kofi wins MitB.

Brock gets into a scrap with Roman/Strowman hurt but survives.

New Day show up and Brock gets all defensive - but its just Xavier and Big E.

He goes to fight them off but Kofi pops out of a Booty Os box still oit there from earlier that night clocks Brock and cashes in.

Kofi wins clean-ish from there maybe with some like "Xavier grabs Brock legs to keep him from kicking out" shenanigans.

New Day spends the next few weeks clowning on an increasingly furious Brock.

Brock gets his rematch with Kofi and despite no attempts to interfere with the match Big E and Xaviers mere presence drives Brock to distraction allowing Kofi to very nearly retain before ultimately losing.

I assume this is both have to be black/Anoa'i right?

Otherwise Rock and Kofi and R Truth really begin skewing things.
