Xavier Woods is focused on capturing singles gold in WWE.
Xavier Woods is the latest name to fall to Gunther in a WWE Intercontinental Championship match. Woods got his first crack at the gold on the April 21 WWE SmackDown. Xavier is now focused on the WWE Draft and the uncertainty that comes along with WWE's game-changing shake-ups.
In a video released on social media, Woods addresses the uncertainty surrounding The New Day potentially changing brands and keeping his focus on becoming a single champion, even referring to the brand-new WWE World Heavyweight Championship unveiled by Triple H on the April 24 WWE Raw.
"Last Friday night on SmackDown, I had a match for the Intercontinental Championship with 'The Ring General' Gunther. Since you don't see that title anywhere on me right now, you can guess the outcome," Woods stated in acknowledgment of his loss. "Do I want another shot? Of course. Am I going to get another shot? I have no idea but that's not due to lack of skill or effort. That's because this Friday night, the WWE Draft kicks off, and I have no idea what show Kofi and I are even going to end up on, but one good thing that came out of last Friday is that I had the chance to remind every single member of the WWE Universe that I have the ability to go toe-to-toe with any of our current champions.
"Rollcall, I have gone toe-to-toe with our current Tag Team Champions, Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens. I just went shot-for-shot with the most dominant Intercontinental Champion that we've had in recent memory, 'The Ring General' Gunther. I am one of two men to go the distance with our reigning and defending [Undisputed WWE Universal Champion] Roman Reigns, and I actually have yet to have the pleasure of being one on one in the ring with our current United States Champion, Austin Theory," Woods continued. "Don't even get me started on the fact bad Triple H just unveiled a brand new Heavyweight Title. So what I'm trying to say is that regardless if I end up on Raw or SmackDown, Xavier Woods has options, and I will become a singles champion. It might not be today, and it might not even be tomorrow, but eventually, Xavier Woods wins."
