Kingston and Woods Leave WWE, The New Day's Next Chapter Begins
TL;DR
Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods, of The New Day, have parted ways with WWE in a mutual decision after more than a decade, joining a broader round of releases. While not a pure roster cut, the exits come amid a payroll shakeup and could attract heavy interest from other promotions, including AEW, though a 90-day non-compete and WWE ownership of their ring names complicate immediate appearances.
