Kofi Kingston is on the receiving end of a massive push. This wouldn’t have happened had Mustafa Ali never suffered a concussion, which made Kofi replace him at Elimination Chamber.
While speaking to E&C’s Pod Of Awesomeness, Kofi Kingston talked about taking Mustafa Ali’s spot. He understands how it feels to have his moment taken away. However, he promises to do a great job as he knew Ali would have as well.
“It sucks at the way the situation came about as Mustafa Ali’s been doing an amazing job after being thrust into the spotlight.”
“The fact that he ended up getting hurt is the worst. But you don’t know when you’re gonna be asked to step up and fill that role.”
“For me, obviously I wanted to kill it and knock it out of the park regardless…but I also didn’t want to let [Ali] down because I know how it feels to have a large, potential moment and have it taken away *cough* Elimination Chamber.”
“I know how it feels to sit on the sideline and watch a spot that is supposed to be yours taken. Part of me was like, I know Mustafa would have killed it in this position so I have to kill it. I can’t allow for there to be a letdown and I have to seize the moment.”
We will have to wait and see what Kofi Kingston does at Fastlane as he sets to challenge Daniel Bryan for the WWE Championship.
