Xavier Woods is expected back on the road this week, according to local advertising.
There is no word yet on if he is cleared to wrestle but he should be present in St. Louis this weekend for the Royal Rumble.
Earlier this month, Woods stated that he injured his plantaris muscle in his calf after a springboard DDT spot and the injury would keep him out for 4-6 weeks.
Woods last wrestled on the 1/7 episode of SmackDown so if that is when the injury occurred, one has to assume that he’s not cleared yet since he is not within the 4-6 weeks return timetable as of yet. WWE could use Woods for appearances/media interviews and non-physical things before he wrestles again.
