WWE has announced that Kofi Kingston & Xavier Woods vs. Sheamus & Ridge Holland will now take place at WrestleMania 38 night two on Sunday.

**********

One of the matches that was scheduled for WrestleMania 38 night one on Saturday didn’t end up taking place.

Despite being announced for WrestleMania Saturday, New Day’s Kofi Kingston & Xavier Woods vs. Sheamus & Ridge Holland didn’t happen tonight. PWInsider reported that New Day vs. Sheamus & Holland was pulled “due to a number of matches on the show going long.”

“To be in the business for an extended duration of time is to experience the highest of highs as well as lowest of lows,” Kingston tweeted. “Yes, it hurts; but we take it and we use it to propel us forward. #WrestleMania”

Sheamus commented on the match being cut by tweeting a scissors emoji:

Before Big E suffered a broken neck last month, it appeared that a six-man tag match with New Day (Big E, Kingston & Woods) vs. Sheamus, Holland & Butch (Pete Dunne) was originally being set up for WrestleMania 38.
