Xavier Woods Doesn’t Know What’s Next After IC Title Loss

Xavier Woods attempted to dethrone Gunther as WWE Intercontinental Champion last night on WWE SmackDown, and following his loss, is unsure of what comes next for him.

Speaking to WWE backstage in a WWE Digital Exclusive, Woods said he wasn’t sure what came next for him, as getting a shot at the title was something he’s been trying to do, and he failed at his potentially one and only shot to become champ.

“This was my shot,” Woods said. “I hadn’t had a shot at the Intercontinental Championship since I’d been here. I got here in 2010. It’s 2023. I had one shot at Gunther, I had one shot to become champion, and I failed, and I didn’t do it. I have no Kofi here, I have no [Big] E here. We’re all about the power of positivity, but it’s not always easy.”

Woods went on to say that he isn’t sure what to do next but “move forward.” What that means, however, even Woods doesn’t know. He noted that moments like these, for guys like him, come “once in a career apparently,” and that he isn’t sure if he’ll ever get another shot at the title again.

“I don’t know what to do next, besides move forward. What is moving forward? I have no idea. But shots like this for me, specifically guys like me, come once in a career apparently. So I don’t know if I’ll ever get a shot at that again. So yes, Gunther won. Yes, Gunther is the Intercontinental Champion. I am not. So we go to work.”
