What was an unfortunate injury for Ali turned out to be a blessing in disguise for the current WWE Champion Kofi Kingston. After replacing the former 205 Live Superstar in the Elimination Chamber match at the PPV of the same name, Kingston won the heart of every member of the WWE Universe and the crowd in the arena cheered him throughout the match.

After that, a match was set up between Kofi and Daniel Bryan for WWE's most prestigious championship at Fastlane but Kofi was later replaced by a returning Kevin Owens. #KofiMania was born and as they say, the rest is history.

WWE was once again forced to change their plans and Kofi Kingston challenged Bryan for the WWE Championship at the Show of Shows, which was originally supposed to be Kevin Owens. Kingston won the match & the title and fans all over the world erupted in glee. This moment will undoubtedly go down as one of the most memorable moments in recent WrestleMania history.
