Who is the most underrated superstar in WWE today? Some might say Dolph Ziggler, they might say Samoa Joe, but almost everyone agrees that Kofi Kingston is a superstar that is possibly the best-underused talent WWE has had over the last decade.
When Kofi burst onto the scenes back in 2008 as a Jamaican that loved surfing and having a good time, no one really thought this man would be able to ascend and break through the walls of his generic gimmick, but oh boy we were wrong.
WWE clearly had plans for the young star, as his battles with a very hot Randy Orton put him on a level many thought he could never reach. Who could ever forget Kofi's boom drop on Orton from the stands and who could ever forget Kofi's push being ended abruptly due to a silly in-ring incident with Orton?
This was a turning point in Kofi's career, and even though he went on to moderate success as an IC Champion, US Champions and even Tag Team Champion, no one really knew what his initial push entailed, maybe a World Title shot?
Who knows, but none of that matters anymore, as it seems WWE could be giving us what they should have done the years ago, Kofi as a potential World Champion. Now it is very easy to get carried away by WWE booking Kofi as an absolute world beater on Smackdown Live when they had him wrestle one hour in the high stakes gauntlet match.
But it just seems like a surprise is coming at the pay-per-view, as it seems WWE has finally found a way to use The New Day on this road to Wrestlemania. Therefore, Kofi actually has a chance at this point to be the future WWE Champion is shocking enough but the sight of Kofi winning the title will be more than shocking.
