A number of WWE stars have been sidelined due to injury over the last few months such as Seth Rollins, Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed to name a few. Recently Kofi Kingston announced that Xavier Woods is also sidelined as Kofi confirmed that Woods is currently dealing with a shoulder injury.
Bill Pritchard of WrestleZone recently spoke to Xavier Woods at WWE 2K26 Creator Fest, and Woods noted that he’s hopeful he will be able to rehab his shoulder with a few weeks of physical therapy.
“I feel ok. Lifting things with my shoulder doesn’t feel ok. I kind of put it through like a meat grinder, so we’ll see how it is. Hopefully, it’s a few weeks of physical therapy, and then we’ll be back at it. But if not, I will let everybody know. But yeah, it’s alright. We’re just staying positive.”
Xavier Woods last stepped into the ring when he competed in a dark match before the Royal Rumble premium live event. Woods teamed up with Kofi Kingston & Grayson Waller to compete in a six man tag team match that saw Shinsuke Nakamura & The Motor City Machine Guns pick up the win.
