"There's not these weird boundaries of wrestling companies" - WWE Superstar recalls working with Kenny Omega
In a recent podcast, 36-year-old WWE Superstar Xavier Woods recalled working with Kenny Omega.
On November 18, 2013, Xavier Woods made his main roster debut on WWE RAW, teaming up with his former tag team partner R Truth. They defeated 3MB members, Drew McIntyre and Jinder Mahal. In 2014, Woods formed The New Day with Kofi Kingston and Big E.
In a recent episode of Mark Andrews' podcast My Love Letter to Wrestling, Woods talked about working with Kenny Omega. The former WWE Tag Team Champion said that they have a weird section of their universe where they play video games against each other and enjoy:
"Yes, so we have this weird section of our universe, I guess it is. Where we play video games against each other, and it's like, I don't know, I enjoy them, he enjoys them. Lots of people in the video game space enjoy wrestling, so there's this cool crossover, especially when we're at events, getting to meet people and things like that, but it's a place where we can kinda do what we want, and there's not these weird boundaries of wrestling companies," said Woods. [From 8:49 to 9:12]
He added that they are just people who enjoy their hobbies, and he believes that the deepest trait of wrestling is that there are a lot of things that bring different people together:
"It's just people who are enjoying the hobbies that they have, and that, I think, personally, is like the deepest trait of wrestling, is that there's so many different things involved in it that so many different types of people can enjoy and it brings them all together. Even though minus wrestling, they might not ever speak," said Woods. [From 9:12 to 9:32]
