Xavier Woods Calls Out CM Punk, Takes A Dig at Jey Uso Before RAW

WWE star Xavier Woods has stirred the pot with a bold challenge aimed at CM Punk, while subtly taking a shot at Jey Uso ahead of RAW. In a fiery post on X (formerly Twitter), Woods completed a round of cardio before directly calling out Punk.

CM Punk defeated Jey Uso at Saturday Night’s Main Event XLI to win the vacant World Heavyweight Championship. The match also saw Uso visibly exhausted and botching some moves.

While Xavier Woods had been absent from RAW for the past few weeks, he announced he would return tonight. In a video posted on X/Twitter, he performed a series of cardio exercises while his New Day teammate, Kofi Kingston, filmed him.

At the end, Woods said:

“Hey yo, Punk. When you are ready to go up against somebody that doesn’t have baby lungs, you know where to find me.”

In addition to the direct challenge to the new world champion, Woods also took a dig at Jey Uso with the  “baby lungs” remark. So far, CM Punk has not responded publicly. However, he might react on RAW tonight as Xavier Woods returns to the show.
