The mourning processions for The Latest Day’s Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston are scheduled to proceed after the historic team got here up short of their title match against reigning WWE World Tag Team Champions AJ Styles and Dragon Lee. Despite having latest member Grayson Waller of their corner, Woods and Kingston were bested by Styles and Lee’s high-octane offense, brutal strikes, and impeccable tag team timing.
Woods and Kingston’s Monday night actually began quite well, with each Latest Day members laying serious offense onto Styles and Lee, despite transient flashes of offense from the champions. Either side exchanged near fall after near fall, however the Latest Day’s end got here following a missed Trouble in Paradise from Kingston. Lee, the kick’s original goal, worn out the challenger with an elbow to the jaw before tagging in Styles. Styles hung Kingston’s body from the ropes before Lee landed a devastating Double Stomp to the back of Kingston’s neck. The weary Latest Day member wandered right right into a Styles Clash set-up, and after Lee soared excessive rope to flatten Woods and Waller, Styles landed his iconic finisher to attain the three-count.
With this title defense, Styles and Lee will proceed their 43-day reign with the WWE World Tag Team Championships. Styles and Lee shocked the world once they dethroned former champions Finn Balor and J.D. McDonagh for the gold in late October. Their first title defense got here the next week in the shape of a title rematch against Balor and McDonagh.
As of writing, no latest challengers have stepped as much as challenge for Styles and Lee’s tag titles.
