The WWE universe was left stunned this week as 11-time champion Xavier Woods suffered a devastating injury at the hands of Gunther, the Imperium leader, leaving his future in the ring uncertain. The injury occurred during a match between the two wrestlers, where Gunther “utterly decimated” Woods, targeting his limbs and leaving him badly hurt.
According to Kofi Kingston, Woods’ tag-team partner and close friend, Woods is currently out of action indefinitely, with no clear timeline for his return to the ring. Kingston revealed the extent of the injury on WWE RAW, expressing concern for Woods’ future in the sport.
However, Kingston has vowed to avenge his friend and teammate by progressing in the tournament and eventually facing Gunther. Kingston is set to face Rey Mysterio in the next round, and a win would bring him one step closer to a showdown with the Ring General.
Meanwhile, Gunther has continued to make progress in the tournament, defeating Sheamus in the main event of RAW this week. The match went overtime, with Gunther ultimately emerging victorious and progressing to the next round. He will now face the winner of the Kingston vs. Mysterio match.
The road to the championship is heating up, with other matchups set to take place in the coming weeks. Ilja Dragunov and Jey Uso will face off in their own bracket, with the winner advancing to the next round.
As the tournament unfolds, all eyes will be on Gunther, who has proven to be a formidable opponent. Will Kingston be able to overcome the odds and avenge his friend’s injury, or will Gunther continue his dominant run? The WWE universe waits with bated breath as the drama unfolds. One thing is certain – the road to the championship has never been more unpredictable.
