Now, nearly a week later, Xavier Woods, Xavier Woods rev𝓰ealed that he suffered a torn Plantaris, which he explained is the muscle underneath his calf.

When 🥃asked how it happened, he said he was attempting to do a jumping DDT during a match but he did not explain what match the injury occurred in and who he was i🧔n the ring with.

“Yeah, so I was jumping in the ring to do a DDT. I spring off the bottom rope and grab the guy and then run his head into the ground hopefully shattering all the bones in his body so I can pin him and win the match, and make more money. So I did that part still but in the process — No, just jumping off the rope, so nothing like — not a shark attack, not a steel chair hit, not a machine gun, not a machete. I just jumped.”

When asked when in the💞 match his injury took place, Woods revealed that there was still a little bit left in the match but he was able to take care of everything safely and that he will only be out for four to six weeks.

“I still had some stuff to do. But in those situations, you've got to figure out like, 'Am I hurt to the point where I can no longer like go forward? Am I hurt to the point where I could mess up and possibly negatively affect someone else's health?’ You gotta keep everybody safe in there, and I was okay. You know, this sucks. I can't do this or that but I can do this for this. We finished everything and it's all cool. So, like, four to six weeks, and I'll be good.”
