After Mustafa Ali was sidelined from the men's Elimination Chamber match with an injury, the WWE Creatives inserted Kofi Kingston as his replacement for the high-stakes encounter.

While the decision to include Kofi felt like a filler to the management, Kingston's epic performance in the gauntlet match stunned the entire world, with the 37-year old veteran displaying his versatility and endurance throughout the bout.

Considering that Vince has always endorsed the idea of superstars making the most of their opportunities, Kofi's relentlessness to gravitate the management's attention worked and made him an overnight sensation.

Furthermore, legions of fans backed The New Day member to get the better off 'The New' Daniel Bryan at the Elimination Chamber and while the company had planned to impel Mustafa Ali to the top, Kofi's heartening tale forced them to think otherwise.

The same can be said about Becky Lynch. The former SmackDown Women's Champion is now the talk of the entire industry despite never being the one booked to break the glass ceiling.
