#3. Kofi Kingston praises WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns

Kofi Kingston recently stated that Roman Reigns had taken his character “to new heights” on WWE SmackDown.

Speaking to the Milwaukee Radio Group’s Don Black, The New Day member highlighted Paul Heyman’s role in elevating The Tribal Chief’s stock since last year.

Will John Cena beat Ric Flair's record? A former WCW Champion thinks so HERE

“Roman has taken his character to new heights. He’s just so confident with himself out there and he’s grown so much. You always knew when Roman was with The Shield, he was gonna be the guy. But him stepping into this Tribal Chief role, he plays it so well. To have the addition of Paul Heyman out there, it elevates him so much," said Kofi Kingston.

Kingston also said he sees The Bloodline (Reigns and The Usos) as a pretty powerful faction. He then brought up The New Day’s rivalries with Jimmy and Jey Uso and added that the latter duo gets increasingly better each time they step inside the squared circle.

The former WWE Champion is no stranger to crossing paths with The Bloodline, as he, Xavier Woods, and Big E came up short against them during a six-man tag team match on RAW back in September.
