WWE Superstar Karrion Kross has sparked speculation among members of the WWE Universe by challenging The New Day to a one-on-one match and then taking to social media to comment on The New Day’s response. Kingston quickly jumped at the opportunity to accept the challenge, but doing so seemed to anger his tag team partner, Xavier Woods. The stage is set for a spectacle next week on WWE Raw, but there seem to be bigger consequences at stake.
Kross’ tweet fueled the speculation
Kross is known for his psychological warfare and intense personality. He fueled the fire on X after it looked like Woods didn’t like the fact that Kofi Kingston took the lead in answering Kross’ challenge and speaking over his partner while doing so. Kross tweeted, “Unreal how Woods can’t even get a word without getting cut off repeatedly. Still think I’m making things up?”
The confrontation was evident during the segment where WWE showed a graphic that read “Kofi Kingston with Xavier Woods” instead of “The New Day,” indicating a potential rift in their unity. When Xavier Woods attempted to speak, Kofi Kingston quickly interrupted him and accepted Kross’ challenge, which frustrated Woods and he gave Kingston an apparent side-eye glance. The moment has led to widespread speculation that the company is teasing a split between the tag team. Woods’ reaction to Kofi was also noticed by the eagle-eyed WWE fans.
The split will not be good for both wrestlers
Renowned wrestling journalist Dave Meltzer reflected on the potential split and expressed his skepticism about single prospects for both Kofi and Xavier. He stated that if WWE splits them up, neither of them would be able to do much.

The New Day’s strength has always been their unity and the split could be challenging for both as individual wrestlers. On the other hand, Kross is continuing to impress with his character. His ability to embody his role with intensity and precision makes him a great performer. The upcoming story angle with The New Day could be the storyline that will propel him further.
