A WWE star who has been in the company for more than two decades has revealed a surprising first-time opportunity.
Despite signing a WWE developmental contract in 2010 and going on to be a mainstay of the roster since Xavier Woods revealed that he has “never once had a match where a singles title was on the line.”
The 2021 King of the Ring, seven-time WWE SmackDown Tag Team Champion, four-time WWE Raw Tag Team Champion and former NXT Tag Team Champion would tweet that:
In all my time on the main roster I have never once had a match where a singles title was on the line. Ive beaten men while they held World and Universal championships. I even won King of the Ring. Still no shot. Tomorrow I do everything I can to get one. https://t.co/sbT1Qgw4Gi

On the March 10 episode of WWE SmackDown, Woods is set to face Sheamus, Drew McIntyre, Karrion Kross and LA Knight in a Fatal 5-Way Intercontinental Championship Qualifying Match.
Originally slated to feature Kofi Kingston, the change was made due to an injury Kingston recently suffered.
