10 Best Ever NXT To WWE Call-Ups

Xavier Woods could have easily gone the way of someone like Adam Rose had it not been for The New Day. His first few months on the main roster, after all, were spent in a dead-end tag team with R-Truth.

It was only when he was thrown together with Kofi and Big E in mid-2014 - nearly a year after he first made the step up from NXT - that the former TNA man began to flourish as one-third of the hottest tag team act of the PG Era.

His list of accomplishments in the four years since speaks for itself. Not only is he a four-time tag team champion (uniquely, he has held both brand's titles twice), he also holds the record of the longest reigning title holder in history.

Woods may have harboured singles ambitions when he first signed for WWE six years ago, but in many ways his current spot is much better: he is virtually guaranteed a starring role in every show, and is never more than a few months away from another title win.
