Let's look at the dynamics of The New Day. Big E is the muscle while Kofi Kingston is the well-rounded wrestler, who can do just about anything.
Xavier Woods has always been the high-flier in a sense as the lightest member of the group, but he is also someone with an incredible amount of power as we've evidenced on more than one occasion. And there is only another performer in the roster who can justify a very similar description and his name is Apollo Crews.

None can dispute the fact that Apollo Crews is absolutely fantastic in the ring and if he lacks in any department, one could say that his personality isn't up to speed in such a manner that it connects with the WWE Universe in the right manner. And this is why despite various pushes, Crews has never managed to ascend to anything but mid-card level.
The best way to give him some character would be to align him with The New Day and in doing so, both parties benefit even if it is for a while.
