Xavier Woods Gives An Encouraging Update On His Knee Injury

Xavier Woods has provided an update on his injury scare from Monday night’s SmackDown live event and the situation could have been a lot worse.



The New Day member appeared on SmackDown Live on Tuesday evening wearing a knee brace and using crutches to get around, all-the-while toting a sign that read, “It’s Sore,” a reference to the injury.

After undergoing an evaluation backstage at the SmackDown Live taping on Tuesday, WWE’s medical staff determined Woods suffered an MCL sprain. Woods posted the following on Twitter on Tuesday night confirmed that he will still be attending this weekend’s Dragon Con fan fest in Atlanta, GA.

It remains to be seen how long Woods will be out of action, but his MCL sprain has to be considered good news when you consider Big Cass’ ACL tear the previous week resulted in a surgery that will keep him on the sidelines until early 2018.
