Xavier Woods advances to the next round.

On the June 19 episode of WWE Speed, Xavier Woods faced Dijak in a first-round match in the #1 Contender's Tournament. Dijak overpowered Woods early on, and Woods rallied. Dijak later took control again, but the New Day member ultimately scored the win with just seconds remaining in the three-minute match, as he hit a diving elbow drop.
