The January 27 episode of WWE RAW took place at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia. A lot of Superstars are from the city, but Xavier Woods had quite a home city segment.
Xavier Woods made a point during a backstage interview that he is Atlanta’s greatest son. He also said that his father, mother, and sister will be at the show tonight in the front row.
Woods was set to take on Rey Mysterio. This match was special, not only because it would be Zelina Vega’s final appearance as part of the LWO, but Woods wanted to deliver for his home city fans.
The front row had a few seats that had “reserved” papers on them, but they were empty. It was said that Woods’ family didn’t show up in time for the match.
Then, Xavier Woods’ family showed up during his match. He walked up to them and asked them why they were late. He wasn’t happy at all. Then they had a surprise for him.
Xavier Woods’ mother, father, and sister all revealed “New Day Sucks” t-shirts. This took Xavier off guard, and Kofi Kingston wasn’t happy about it, either.
Eventually, Rey Mysterio beat Xavier Woods in the middle of the ring in Atlanta. This was certainly not the homecoming that Xavier Woods wanted at all.
