I truly believe that if Big E were healthy he would be the one in the turncoat storyline with Kofi though it would honestly mean more. Owens was an “honorary New Day Member” for like a week before he turned on them, the betrayal for obvious reasons would have meant more coming from E or Xavier. I also doubt anyone ever really trusted Owens due to his track record of stabbing people in the back.
