#2. The possible reason why WWE split up the New Day

As seen on SmackDown, WWE split the New Day as Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods were drafted to RAW while Big E remained a Superstar on the Blue brand.

The decision to break up the most successful team of the past decade has been met with underwhelming reactions. However, WWE might have a big reason behind the move.

Dave Meltzer noted on a recent edition of the Wrestling Observer Radio that WWE split up the New Day to keep the focus on Big E's singles run. According to the WWE, Big E continuing to be a part of the New Day would have hindered his singles push as the fans would have yearned to see the trio stay and wrestle together.

Meltzer explained the following:

"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."
