#3 The first African-American WWE Champion in a while

Race is a touchy subject. It's not something that people should dismiss nor should it be taken as the only aggregate in any job, much less as WWE Champion. While most people will bring up names like Booker T and Mark Henry, they only won the World Heavyweight Championship. Any WWE fan will probably rank the WWE title as higher than the aforementioned one.
With the political culture of America being what it is, it has become a necessary and bolder statement that WWE can make. Also to be clear, Kofi Kingston has more than just earned it with 9 years of high-risk maneuvers, entertaining millions worldwide and just creating an everlasting impact over the WWE Universe. Let's hope it happens at WrestleMania 35.
