Kofi Kingston comments on the ongoing tension between him and Xavier Woods.
In recent months, Kingston and Woods have struggled to get along, and tensions reached an all-time high when they had a heated argument on the November 25 episode of WWE RAW. This came one week before their tenth anniversary celebration on the December 2 episode.
In an interview with Joseph Staszewski of the New York Post, Kofi Kingston discussed his current story with Xavier Woods.
“There’s definitely, like clearly a little bit of tension, right?” he said. “But I look at it like anybody who has siblings knows that you get into tiffs. You butt heads a little bit. But at the end of the day, like you realize what the big picture is, you know, you realize that you have the same goals, and that you want your partner to have the best treatment, and you want them to achieve all the successes that they can achieve.
“You always come together at the family cookout, get-together, right? Because you’re family, right? Like, that’s really what it’s all about. But it’s been, it’s, you know, it’s been a little bit trying over the past couple years, trying to be successful and win championships, but at the same time, I think it’s a huge success that we have been able to even stay on TV and in a relevant way, you know, and still have an impact on people.
“We come out, the people are still chanting “New Day rocks.” We come out, the people are still smiling. They’re still on their feet. They’re still ready to have a good time. They know that they’re going to be entertained in a way that nobody else on the roster is going to be able to be able to entertain them. So that, in and of itself, is still success.”
