His outings in the SmackDown gauntlet match and the Elimination Chamber showed that the WWE Universe desperately wants Kofi to finally realize his lifelong dream and become the WWE Champion.

The chances of this actually happening are looking very slim at the moment as Kofi is set to face Bryan for the title at Fastlane. There's no way he is going into WrestleMania as the Champion. The better story would be to build a storyline around Kingston, showcase his struggles to grab the brass ring, and his ascension to the top of the WWE food chain.
Owens can get his chance at gold after the dust settles down, but the WWE needs to run with what they've got here and give us a WrestleMania moment to remember.

While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
