I think they're done for now. They haven't really delivered a pay-off in some time. It's really frustrating from a redundancy point of view as to why there are two on each show too. They don't come with the same pay-off as McMahon had for Austin. No one ever really gets one over on Steph, and I imagine that Foley might be there just to get fired in a few weeks (or sooner) and put more heat on these largely non-wrestling characters.
The cliche of the matches being made on the night of the show is also starting to really get me. I know people are going to say that it's nit-picky, but it really bothers me when the card is made up in front of the live crowd on the night. What were they originally going to put on?
Oh, and the way they aren't really heels gets me too. Well, they are, but then they'll show videos of them at charity events and things, and you're taken out of watching the show. I know what they are trying to achieve with these things as a corporation, but you could very easily show your babyfaces doing that sort of stuff. The New Day making a kid laugh will get the message across just as much as Stephanie McMahon with a twinkle in her eye.
