Xavier Woods said to make "little to nothing" from UpUpDownDown (Patreon)

In an update on today's story, it's not tough to see why the UpUpDownDown crew thinks Xavier Woods was getting a raw deal.
We're told that Xavier Woods sees little to no additional money at all from UpUpDownDown, and his hosting, G4, UpUpDownDown is all applied towards his downside guarantee. This was said to have been the case for the rest of the regular cast as well. We're told Woods had decided to hold out from creating content until he got a deal for it, which shocked many people involved, as they assumed that not only did he have one in place, but assumed that he was doing well from it. As it turns out, we're told that in relation to gaming, those close to the situation believe he's "not seen an extra dime" from the channel he grew to 2.27 million subscribers.
To clarify an error, WWE has always owned UpUpDownDown. At no point did Xavier Woods own it, and we're told it even took a long time to green light the project in general. Several WWE sources indicated that the members of UpUpDownDown all felt a sense of loyalty to Xavier Woods for putting them on the platform and pushing for their presences.
WWE sources that we've spoken with indicated there's no heat on Woods on the booking side of things, and noted his King of the Ring win and program with Roman Reigns has taken place while the hold out happened. Virtually everyone we spoke to within the company has taken Woods' side on the matter.
