The attitude of the group is positive considering that they have been done to 2/3 of their strength. Xavier Woods is missed by the group, who are stronger than ever. By the time Xavier comes back they just might become invincible as The Usos seem to be the only major challenge to them in the Smackdown Brand.
The group should however not become arrogant as the last time Kofi Kingston was arrogant and cocky, he got pinned by Brock Lesnar in 8 seconds to lose the WWE Championship.

The uncertain times with the coronavirus makes NXT’s return a difficulty. This has also led to the tag team division getting slim. Matches will eventually be repeated. The New Day with their positive message would be a beacon of hope especially when Xavier comes back.
WWE needs to become creative to make the division more entertaining in the empty arena era while using minimal resources.
