UPDATE: WWE Confirms Achilles Tendon Injury To Xavier Woods

UPDATE: WWE has now confirmed that Xavier Woods suffered an Achilles injury and will be unable to finish the company’s tour of Australia.

Original: Xavier Woods suffered an injury at WWE’s live event today in Sydney, Australia, during a match with Big E against The Revival. At one point, Woods was thrown into the ropes but immediately fell down and grabbed either his leg or his knee. The referee threw up the “X” and trainers came out from the back. Woods was examined as Big E and The Revival looked on. He was helped to the back and Big E continued the match on his own, eventually losing.

Woods later revealed on Twitter that he suffered an Achilles tendon injury.
