On latest edition of Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer revealed the reason for split up of New Day. He said that Big E is set to big singles push and if they all in same brand, fans wants them to be as a team. So, WWE made this big move to be Big E as big singles star.
“I think that their mentality is that they want to give Big E a big singles push and in their mind, if he’s part of the New Day then people will want him together as a team. It doesn’t have to be that way, I don’t think breaking up the New Day was the right thing to do, but I’m sure if Big E becomes a big singles star at the end or if they go all the way with him they figure that everyone will be happy with that, and they will be.”
Big E was set for singles push after Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods are out of action due to Injury. Big E had good run still now and had feud with Sheamus and let’s see what WWE hold for Big E in future.
