Xavier Woods Returns To Action At 3/12 WWE Live Event
The King is back!
January 7 was the last time Xavier Woods had competed in a WWE ring since suffering a torn Plantaris. On that night he teamed up with Kofi Kingston to take on The Usos in a Tag Title Street Fight. The following week during the opening of G4’s Attack of the Show, he shared the news of his injury and estimated that he would be back in 4-6 weeks.
Nine weeks later, the 2021 King of the Ring has returned to action, teaming up with Kofi Kingston at a live event in Jackson, MS.

Woods and Kingston had been separated from fellow New Day member Big E while he was on Raw, but he would join SmackDown officially on January 28, three weeks after Woods went down with an injury. Big E would help Kingston fend off the likes of Happy Corbin, Madcap Moss, and Los Lotharios.
On March 11, Big E sustained a broken neck on SmackDown following a Belly-to-Belly Suplex that didn’t go according to plan. The former WWE Champion shared an update on his condition the next day saying that he has two fractured vertebrae, but will not require surgery.
