Kofi Kingston and Austin Creed—formerly known as Xavier Woods in WWE—are set to make their official All Elite Wrestling debuts at AEW All In at Wembley Stadium.
Reports from Fightful Select confirmed that the decorated duo is slated to arrive in AEW barring any last-minute complications, with contract negotiations concluding rapidly over the past two weeks.
Wild-Card Entrants In Trios Roulette Royale
Rather than making a simple post-match appearance, Kingston and Creed are already integrated into the match card for Sunday’s event. The duo is planned to align with former AEW World Champion Swerve Strickland, entering the Buy-In pre-show’s Trios Roulette Royale as the mystery wild-card team.
The alliance pairs the incoming veterans directly with one of AEW’s top stars while competing for the AEW World Trios Championship against reigning titleholders Hangman Adam Page, Brody King, and Bandido.
New Identity And Presentation
While the duo achieved historic success in WWE as key members of The New Day, they will not be utilizing the group’s intellectual property or name in AEW. Instead, Kingston and Creed will premiere under a completely fresh team identity, with AEW keeping the specific branding details undisclosed ahead of the broadcast.
Initial indications of their arrival emerged via WrestleVotes Radio, which noted that internal expectation within AEW had been building throughout the week regarding an appearance at Wembley Stadium:
- “After speaking with sources, we’re told there are those within the company expecting former New Day members Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston to make their AEW debuts this weekend at All In.”
- “While we don’t have a stamped confirmation on that happening, the belief from two different sources we spoke to is that the feeling internally is that the legendary duo are indeed AEW-bound, with an appearance at Wembley Stadium this weekend well within the realm of possibilities.”
With terms agreed upon and their creative direction locked in, Kingston and Creed’s surprise entrance alongside Strickland stands as one of the major focal points heading into Wembley Stadium.
