Kofi's next challenger revealed?
More interruptions followed, as an in-ring interview with WWE Champion Kofi Kingston was cut short by Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn. The three guys traded insults in a well delivered, but pretty pointless promo segment, which led into the scheduled match between Kofi and Sami Zayn.
After an evenly matched bout, Kofi countered an attempted ‘Blue Thunder Bomb’ into a roll-up to get the 3-count and the victory. An incensed Kevin Owens got on the microphone after the match and challenged Kofi to a second match between Kofi and himself, which the WWE Champion duly accepted.
A top AEW star just called one of his colleagues 'spoiled' and 'narcissistic' HERE.
The Owens bout was a much shorter contest as it quickly spilled to the outside and Kingston hit an ‘S.O.S’ on Owens on the entrance ramp, which allowed him to claim a count-out victory.
It was a shame to see Kingston deal with both Owens and Zayn with relative ease, but he didn’t leave standing tall as Samoa Joe attacked the WWE Champion from behind, seemingly announcing himself as the next challenger to Kofi’s title.
