His Wrestlemania Record: 1-8

Kofi Kingston is one of WWE's most spectacular showmen, and, through over a decade in the big leagues, Kingston has collected every mid-card and tag team championship available, while occasionally coming within sniffing distance of the major men's titles. His current run with The New Day has been a career revelation, allowing Kingston to pal around and improvise with his equally quick-minded pals to create some classic entertainment moments across WWE platforms.

On pay-per-view, Kingston's signature event is the Royal Rumble, where each year finds Kingston using tables, barricades, chairs, his tag team partners, and, yes, even silver trays of pancakes to stave off elimination, and the Kofi Spot has been one of fans' most anticipated January moments each year.

Unfortunately, Wrestlemania is far less kind to the Ghanan superstar, as he has only been on the winning side once in his illustrious WWE career.

His Signature Loss: Throughout the beginning of 2016, The New Day had begun a slow-burn babyface turn thanks to fans' enjoyment of singing along to their signature catchphrases, which annoyed the hastily-thrown-together League of Nations faction to no end. The quartet of international superstars (which became a trio when soon-to-be-future-endeavoured Wade Barrett was reduced to just cornering for his former partners) challenged The New Day to a match in Dallas at Wrestlemania 32, which ended when Xavier Woods fell to Sheamus's Brogue Kick.

The match's real bread-and-butter, though, was New Day's legendary entrance, where they emerged as anime characters from an oversized box of Booty-O's Cereal, and the aftermath, wherein WWE legends Mick Foley, Steve Austin, and Shawn Michaels put New Day in their places with a series of Attitude Era finishers.

At Least He Won When: Kingston was victoriously teaming with Kane, Big Show, and Santino Marella against Ezekiel Jackson, Heath Slater, Justin Gabriel, and Wade Barrett at Wrestlemania XVII.
