Xavier Woods Reportedly Signs ‘Multi-Year’ WWE Contract Extension

Xavier Woods has reportedly signed a multi-year contract extension with WWE, per Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful.com.

The 39-year-old Woods has been a professional wrestler since 2005. He was with TNA from 2007-2010 before later signing a developmental contract with WWE in 2010. Three years later, Woods made his main roster debut, and he’s been there ever since.

He’s made a major impact with The New Day, winning the tag team championships a total of 12 teams (five Raw, seven SmackDown). He and Kofi Kingston most recently won the World Tag Team Championship at WrestleMania against the War Raiders before dropping the belts to The Judgment Day a few months later on the June 30 edition of Raw.

Woods also won the NXT Tag Team Championship once with Kingston.

On an individual level, Woods notably won the 2021 King of the Ring tournament, beating Finn Bálor in the final at Crown Jewel.

Away from the ring, Woods, under the name Austin Creed, started the wildly successful and popular UpUpDownDown YouTube channel, which has 2.44 million subscribers. Creed plays video games and talks with a host of WWE Superstars on the channel. Of note, he most recently played Borderlands 4 with Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed.
