WWE Botches WrestleMania 41 Match Announcement

WWE Botches WrestleMania 41 Match Announcement WWE

A WWE star has reacted to an unfortunate botch which was made during the announcement of his WrestleMania 41 match.

With Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods vying for a World Tag Team Championship match at WrestleMania, WWE confirmed this match for the April 19-20 show on Friday night (April 11).

While graphics for the match shared online were correct, there was an error in the preview shared to WWE.com.

As was highlighted by Xavier Woods on Twitter, WWE.com correctly listed champions Erik and Ivar as “featured superstars” in the article, but incorrectly listed Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins of the Street Profits instead of Woods and Kingston.

Woods reacted to this on Twitter, writing:

After we win the titles at #Wrestlemania the disrespect comes to an end. #ThankGodForTheNewDay

WWE has since corrected this mistake, with Erik, Ivar, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods listed as the stars featured in this match preview.

The Street Profits are notably the WWE Tag Team Champions, and will defend their gold against the Motor City Machine Guns on the April 18 SmackDown episode, one night before WrestleMania 41.

Previous reports indicated that there had been some uncertainty over whether this WWE Tag Team Championship match would be added to WrestleMania or not.

The night one and two lineups for WrestleMania 41 have now been confirmed, click here to read more.
