#2 Enzo and Big Cass to SmackDown is more advantageous for all
By the time Tuesday night came along, it was obvious SmackDown desperately needed a babyface tag team on the roster as American Alpha is great, but can’t handle the pressure entirely on their own.
WWE chose to put The New Day in that spot, which makes sense as far as picking a popular team to motivate people to watch SmackDown. A wiser move for everybody, though, would have been to move Enzo Amore and Big Cass, for a multitude of reasons.
First off, this would reunite Big Cass with his real life girlfriend, Carmella. The two have been separated on different brands since Enzo and Cass moved up to the main roster and Carmella stayed behind in NXT. Undoubtedly, this is a strain on their relationship, which is a shame.
Enzo and Cass are popular enough to handle the burden The New Day is responsible for fixing, so that isn’t a downgrade by any means.
Plus, on SmackDown, they would be bigger fish in a smaller pond. With The Hardy Boyz on Raw, Enzo and Cass aren’t likely to touch those tag titles any time soon, which is astonishing to think has still never happened.
That would be a different story on SmackDown as they likely would have come up straight into a feud with The Usos—something not beaten into the ground yet like Enzo and Cass feuding with Gallows and Anderson or Cesaro and Sheamus.
Meanwhile, The New Day staying on Raw would have allowed for a feud between them and The Hardy Boyz, which is arguably the biggest tag team match available in WWE at the moment. The New Day also never had a chance to properly feud with The Revival, while Enzo and Cass have had their matches with them in the NXT.
Essentially, The New Day and Enzo and Cass will see no real newer opponents for themselves on their current brands and there’s a good chance Enzo and Cass get lost in the shuffle on Raw.
