This is guaranteed to be one of the more heartbreaking heel turns if it happens, but in my opinion, it's more a question of 'when' than 'if'. Big E and Kofi Kingston have been inseparable as members of The New Day but there was a point when both men were equals. Now, the spotlight is firmly on Kofi Kingston at long last.
While Big E may be really happy for his friend in real life, it is clear that in kayfabe this is an angle that can be explored. After all, Big E has all of the tools to become WWE Champion in his own right. I don't think Xavier Woods will join him, and he could be Kofi Kingston's loyal friend until the end.

When will the big heel turn happen? I think it should happen after Kingston puts Dolph Ziggler away.
