Tyler Bate loses his first match back.
The duo of Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods had no idea what they were in for on the March 31 edition of WWE Raw, as Tyler Bate made his return from injury to reunite with Pete Dunne in a match against the New Day.
Sadly, Bate and Dunne went on to fall to the New Day, with Woods making the pin on Dunne after taking him down with his signature top rope stomp.

After the bout, Woods and Kingston were interviewed by Cathy Kelly, allowing them to once again proclaim that they want to face the WWE World Tag Team Champions at WrestleMania. The segment came to a close with The War Raiders standing face-to-face with the New Day on the entrance ramp.

For Bate, this bout was his first time wrestling since July 2024, as he suffered a torn pectoral muscle while wrestling Hank Walker and Tank Ledger in NXT.
