WWE: WWE recently announced that his tag team partner Xavier Woods will be included in place of Kofi Kingston in the Fatal 5 Way IC Championship qualifying match to be held on SmackDown this week. Already happened.
Apart from this, Drew McIntyre, L.A. Knight, Carrion Cross, and Sheamus are going to participate in this match. Let me tell you, this match was made official after the brawl between these superstars on SmackDown last week.
The winner of this match will get a chance to compete in an IC Championship match against Gunther at WrestleMania 39. Kofi Kingston was ruled out of the match because of an injury he sustained during a segment on the blue brand last week.
Now Xavier Woods has been given a chance in his place in this match. Although the company did not announce Kofi Kingston’s injury, it has been confirmed through social media posts that Kofi has hurt his right leg.

Big Change Made In The Fatal 5-way Match Going To Be Held In Wwe Smackdown, Former Champion Replaces Veteran In The Match
Let me tell you, this week in SmackDown, Xavier Woods is going to get a chance to make a place in the singles title match for the first time since 2015. The reaction of Xavier Woods regarding his participation in this match has also come to the fore. After WWE changed the Fatal 5-way match, Xavier Woods wrote in his tweet-
“During my main roster career, I never got a singles title match. I beat people when they were holding the world and universal championships. I won King of the Ring but still didn’t get a singles title match. Tomorrow I will try to make it to the singles title match.”
Let me tell you, Xavier Woods is wrong about not getting a singles title match in WWE and he got a chance to compete in the US Championship match against John Cena in the year 2015. Soon, Xavier Woods admitted his mistake in another tweet.
