I know that a lot of you are gutted that Kofi Kingston did not get his opportunity to shine. But I suppose that was the whole point of having him job to The Bar at WWE Fastlane 2019. This is because WWE wants us to see Kofi Kingston at his lowest point. And then have him rise all the way to the top once again.
As one of my friends remarked, Daniel Bryan is in the same position as a heel that Batista and Orton were at WrestleMania XXX, helping the underdog get his moment to shine. This will be the story of Kofi Kingston, one of grit and perseverance. But until we get there, the road will be rocky.
