The New Day is one of the most honoured tag teams of all time. The triumvirate have won five WWE Tag Team Championships in total: two Raw Tag Team titles and three Smackdown Tag Team titles.

Few expected this level of success out of the team, consisting of three mid carders, Kofi Kingston, Xavier Woods and Big E, when they formed way back in the summer of 2014.

Initially, they were presented as a baby-face team that was based upon black gospel groups. However, their act was maligned by fans and soundly booed each time they made their entrance.

Capitalising on the discord, WWE turned them heel and the stable have not looked back since.

Their most successful title run was their second Raw Tag Team title run. They defeated The Prime Time Players at the 2015 Money in the Bank event and held onto the gold until the 2016 Roadblock: End of the Line event.

With their 483 day reign, the trio have set a record that is likely to stand for decades to come.
