5 WWE Superstars you probably didn't know worked with NJPW

#3 Xavier Woods

Woods made his next appearance for NJPW when he teamed up with Togi Makabe and Tomoaki Honma

Xavier Woods has been an integral part of WWE's main roster for a long time now. As a part of the New Day, Woods has attained a lot of success in his WWE career.

Following his walkout from TNA in 2010, Xavier Woods made his NJPW debut, when he teamed up with Kota Ibushi to compete in the Super Junior Tag Tournament. With Ibushi as his partner, Woods fought the duo of Gedo and Kushida but lost the match to them. As a result, the two men were eliminated from the tournament in the first round.

A month later, Woods made his next appearance for NJPW, when he teamed up with Togi Makabe and Tomoaki Honma to participate in the J Sports Crown Openweight 6 Man Tag Tournament. The three men defeated the team of Tamon Honda, Kentaro Shiga, and Makoto Hashi to advance in the second round, where they were defeated by the team of Masato Tanaka, Tomohiro Ishii, and Shinsuke Nakamura.

With this loss, Woods parted his ways from NJPW and went on to sign with WWE, where he spent a few years working on the company's developmental territory NXT before he was called on to the WWE main roster. He joined forces with Big E and Kofi Kingston to form the faction--The New Day.

Currently, Woods is out injured and the fans are anxiously waiting for him to return to action.
