* YouLookFamiliar: TNA fans will no doubt recognize that Xavier Woods is none other than Consequences Creed.
** MythologyGag: Once tagged with one Wrestling/RonKillings in TNA as "Truth and Consequences". When he debuted on RAW, he was introduced in a tag team with R-Truth (Ron Killings) as a 'friend' of Truth's. One of the few times WWE has referenced, if only ''very'' opaquely, a talent's time in TNA.

** In July 2014, he appeared before [[Wrestling/BigELangston Big E]] and KofiKingston, [[BadassInANiceSuit in a suit]], offering to be their manager. They accepted, had one successful match one week later, and... nothing's come of it on TV as of yet, although the group has been spotted together at live events and on social media.
