On the 15th May edition of Smackdown Live, The New Day defeated The Bar in a Money in the Bank Qualifying Match. The rules were that the winning team would choose a member to compete in the opportunistic ladder match.
Sportskeeda is the one-stop destination for latest WWE rumors and wrestling news.
However, the New Day haven't decided on which member would participate, but it is sure to be a very interesting announcement. All three members have been involved in incredible acts over the years. Hence, each of them can be viable singles stars if given the opportunity.
It is unlikely that they will win the match but whichever member gets to compete in this match, is set to make the match better. Kofi Kingston, Big E, and Xavier Woods all have legitimate arguments to be made for them representing the Power of Positivity at Money in the Bank.
#3 Xavier Woods
In the past year, Xavier Woods has really come into his own. He was basically the manager of the New Day, who would play the trombone while Kofi and Big E wrestle. But he's been given the opportunity to shine throughout their classic feud with The Usos. He looked like the star of The New Day.
His rise could continue in the Money in the Bank ladder match, where he could perform his beautiful elbow drop from the top of the ladder. The Miz pointed out on last night's Smackdown that Woods could conduct a Fortnite live stream on his Youtube channel Up Up Down Down, with the WWE Championship in his hands.
However, he seems the unlikeliest option to enter the match because he may not have veteran experience, or a size big enough for a mega-push. He does have heart, though. Woods would be a very solid fit in the Money in the Bank Ladder Match.
Likelihood of competing: 5/10
#2 Kofi Kingston
Xavier Woods once stated that his main objective in WWE is to make sure that Kofi Kingston becomes WWE champion. Those are very selfless words from a very selfless man. Kofi deserves to be champion, it's as simple as that. Both, Woods and Big E consider him as a legend and certain future Hall of Famer.
Another reason why Kofi should possibly be the one in this match is the fact that he has experience. He has competed in six matches of this kind in the past and has wowed the WWE universe with his high-flying skills, witty craftiness, and death-defying leaps. He is one of the greatest competitors in Money in the Bank history, and he deserves to win the briefcase at least once in his career.
His last appearance in the ladder match was in 2015 when he was a Tag Team champion along with Big E and Woods. He represented The New Day in the Money in the Bank ladder match once before, and he should do it again.
Likelihood of competing: 7/10
#1 Big E
Despite Kofi's athleticism and experience, WWE have their sights set on pushing the biggest member of The New Day. Big E cuts one hell of a figure and looks like a million bucks. He has found the right balance of comedy and seriousness. You could laugh at his antics involving pancakes but when he's in the ring, he means business. You could say the same about the entire group, though.
Big E is so charismatic, that it shines through. He is also very strong, which should be no surprise really. He is also incredibly athletic, as the standard has been for big men in wrestling today. He has it all and with the right booking for his character, he is a lock-in to become the first ever African-American WWE champion.
Rumours have been going wild that WWE are set to push Big E to the moon, and Money in the Bank could be the start of it. This would also mean that The New Day might be breaking up soon, which might not be a very smart decision since all three work together and have unbelievable chemistry.
Likelihood of competing: 8/10
In my opinion, they should be associated with each other for the rest of their careers. All three members could have singles runs with various championships while being a part of The New Day.
This gimmick has single-handedly rescued the careers of three stale babyfaces, and it deserves to stay. Hopefully one day, the WWE Championship will be part of The New Day. New Day rocks!
