WWE has been hyping up the impending SmackDown debut of The New Day ever since the superstar shake-up last month, but, as of this writing, we haven’t gotten an official date for their blue brand debut.

According to Cageside Seats, Xavier Woods, Kofi Kingston, and Big E will make their return to WWE television early next month. So, it looks like we’re not all that far away from seeing the popular trio again.

One of the team’s three members — Kofi Kingston — is currently out of action due to an injury, and because of that, WWE has decided to keep the entire team off of television.

On Saturday’s Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer attempted to shed some light on why WWE has kept the team off of television, instead of just having Big E and Xavier Woods be a two man group while Kofi Kingston is recovering.

“I have no idea why they kept them off TV because Kofi was injured. I think part of the problem is that Kofi — in storyline — was injured by The Revival and they’re not going after them because they’re on different brands. I don’t know why they didn’t do Xavier and Big E on television already while they’re waiting for Kofi to recover.”

The New Day is here to save Team Blue's tag team division: SmackDown LIVE, May 9, 2017
