WWE star Xavier Woods has undergone a physical transformation amidst heavy criticism from the fans. While critics continue to lash out at him and his ring partner Kofi Kingston for not approaching a challenge to defend their titles, Woods looks in prime shape in a series of pictures he posted on social media.
Not bothered about the outside noises and title criticism, the 38-year-old took to Instagram and unveiled a picture of his ripped transformation.
“Deconstruction is necessary before rebuilding #ThankGodForTheNewDay,” Woods wrote as caption to the picture that instantly caught the WWE fans’ attention.
The popular wrestler rebuffed the criticism coming at New Day’s way after both Woods and Kingston, who have been on a magnificent rise since turning a heel last year, decided not to throw in a fresh challenge to regain the World Tag Team Championship title they won at WrestleMania 41.
The two wrestlers have been particularly chastised for not even offering a rematch against the War Raiders, whom they had beaten to win the championship crown. But Woods looks unperturbed by the voices against them and came out looking in great shape while critics wonder about the New Day’s next WWE move after winning their 12th overall tag team title.
Continuing to face the fans’ wrath, Woods recently encountered a nasty Twitter user online. The WWE star was accused of ruining the theme song of former champion Batista in a reference made to his famous clip from WrestleMania 35.
Known initially in his career as fun-loving and carefree personality, Woods was seen dancing backstage at the event while singing Batista’s iconic theme song Walk Alone as a fan.
Already miffed over the tag team title controversy, this fan claimed Woods had ruined the song after seeing a different clip of the band, Saliva, performing their written composition it at an event.
In a befitting response, Woods silenced the fan by saying he needs a different belief system if his moment of joy troubled him so much. “If my enjoyment of something ruins it for you, then you need a stronger belief system,” he wrote.
