Possible injury to WWE talent
Added 2025-08-23 23:48:22 +0000 UTCAn unusual situation could be an indication of an injury, or just selling.
On the August 18 episode of WWE Raw, New Day's Xavier Woods took on Penta during the show. However, Xavier Woods may have not emerged unscathed from the loss if word from after the show is any indication.
Fightful was given word that Xavier Woods had told people after the match that unfortunately his neck was "messed up." We haven't learned anything regarding the extent of it, but one source claimed they actually saw him wearing a neck brace later that evening. He was able to leave under his own power and initially didn't seem severe at least based on the fact that he was up and continuing his evening.
We'll work to find out more, but if he is injured, we wish Xavier Woods a speedy recovery. He has posted a video indicating that it could be a work and cutting a promo about the dangers of the package piledriver, but was selling it throughout the evening, even at restaurants after the show.
It is important to note that Xavier also does a bit before DragonCon every year where he "sustains an injury."
