8. Xavier Woods (Psychology)

It's been said that it can take performers years to find their feet and position in the world of wrestling. That statement is true of Xavier Woods, who has been a breakout star as part of The New Day. The group have enabled Woods to show his promo skills, and he's extremely entertaining outside the ring during matches involving his stablemates, Kofi Kingston and Big E. On Chris Jericho's podcast, Xavier opened up and talked about the degree in Psychology he has. Studying at Furman University in Greenville, South Carolina, Woods incredibly continues to study even though he's on the road full-time with WWE. That takes some amount of dedication, but the man says he's determined to see it through. The wrestler already has both a Master's and Bachelor's degree in general psychology, but he's also seeking a further PhD in Educational Psychology. Given that he's a regular performer on WWE television shows and live events, it must be difficult for Xavier Woods to balance his wrestling career with his studying. He's clearly a very determined man.
