As a WWE Champion, Kofi Kingston is enjoying every bit of his career. After all, it took 11 years to get that title. Kofi’s rise is similar to Bryan’s during 2014, where the fans demanded WWE put him in the main event of WM30.

This time, the crowd was behind the Ghanaian Superstar, and WWE fulfilled our wish by handing the WWE Championship to Kofi Kingston, although they hadn’t planned this match for WrestleMania 35.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

"Yeah, Bryan vs. Kingston is scheduled for Fastlane, while a company source told me Tuesday evening that The Beard's opponent for WrestleMania will be Kevin Owens; those videos of KO hanging out with his family and eating bad food make a lot more sense now,” as per Jeremy Botter of Bleacher Report

Since the crowd only cared about KofiMania, WWE capitalized on it and changed their plans to Kingston vs. Bryan for ‘Mania 35.
