5 WWE Rumors from this week you need to know (February 17th, 2019)

#3 Kofi has 'an opportunity'

After eleven years in WWE, many are hoping that Kofi Kingston will finally get a main-event push soon.

In case you missed last week's edition of SmackDown Live, let me fill you in.

In a gauntlet match, the New Day's Kofi Kingston gave the performance of a lifetime, with many people, both fans and Superstars, saying he should be pushed towards a World Championship picture.

According to Wrestle Votes, the booking of Kingston is exactly what was planned for Mustafa Ali, who was supposed to be in this Sunday's Chamber match, but has been removed due to injury.

The report from WrestleVotes also states that Kingston now has "an opportunity" following his match on SmackDown Live, which has become widely acclaimed.

Kingston, a WWE veteran of eleven years, has never held a world championship, though this fact may change at some point in 2019.
