The New Day was a great meal ticker for him. He got a solid 10 years out of it where he would have gotten good money especially considering the merch they were pumping out but he had a smaller work load due to mostly working tags. The New Day will be enshrined in WWE canon as one of the best and most successful stables and tag teams, and are guaranteed a HoF position.
