Xavier Woods must have had the night of his life last night: He picked up the pinfall in the Tag Team Championship match, and he got to use the arena as his own personal Match.com dating site. Wanna bet he was swiping right on Tinder later on?

During New Days pre-match promo, Xavier lamented the loss of his time machine (which Big E rightly pointed out was just a decorated refrigerator box) and suggested that the ladies and gentleladies get on Twitter and direct message him some pics or videos to comfort him in his hour of need..

When his teammates got on his case, Woods asked to let me shoot my shot, drawing a surprisingly big chant from the fans. It was a harmless non sequitur, and it also was entertaining. Xavier showed that he still is one of the better guys on the mic when it comes to engaging the audience. And hopefully, the rest of his night went well too.
