Kofi Kingston Became The First Ever African Born WWE Champion by chrisagyei: 8:57am On Apr 08, 2019 |
Kofi Kingston became the first ever African born WWE champion after defeating Daniel Bryan at Wrestlemania 35. WWE @WWE HE. HAS. DONE IT! @TrueKofi HAS WON THE #WWEChampionship at #WrestleMania !!! 40.9K 1:44 AM - Apr 8, 2019 17.6K people are talking about this Kofi Kingston took on Daniel Bryan for the WWE championship at Wrestlemania 35 after several weeks of forcing his way past Vince McMahon and into the biggest match of his career. At Wrestlemania 30 it was Daniel Bryan who overcame the odds to win the WWE championship, after months of battling with the Authority to get the shot, five years on and this time Bryan was the champion who was helping to keep Kofi Kingston down. Kingston was lucky to get an initial shot at Bryan's title back at Elimination Chamber, earlier this year, when Ali has to pull out of the event with an injury. The New Day member impressed so much that many believed he'd earnt a shot at Bryan for last month's Fastlane, Vince McMahon had other ideas and replaced the 37 year old with Kevin Owens. After weeks of trials and tribulations Kingston's New Day stablemates, Big E and Xavier Woods, earned their best mate a Wrestlemania title shot 10 days ago by winning a tag team gauntlet match. On the night Kingston and his friends had to fight off Bryan and his intellectual peer Erick Rowan but were able to overcome the odds to see the 37 year old crowned champion: WWE WrestleMania @WrestleMania IT'S A NEW DAY FOR THE #WWEChampionship !#WrestleMani @TrueKofi @WWEBigE @XavierWoodsPhD 14.6K 1:45 AM - Apr 8, 2019 5,061 people are talking about this WWE @WWE FOR EVERYONE! What a moment for @TrueKofi and #TheNewDay ... #WrestleMania #WWEChampionship 14.1K 1:46 AM - Apr 8, 2019 5,283 people are talking about this It's an incredible moment for Kingston who has been in the WWE for 11 years and has been a fans favourite throughout his time with the company. He is a four time Intercontinental champion, three times US champion and has won a version of the tag-titles eight times but has never previously won a world champion. It was looking like that chance in his career had gone but fate gave him another chance to become champion and he grabbed it with both hands. It really is a new day! WWE Stats & Info @WWEStats Of the more than 50 recognized @WWE Champions, they have all hailed from North America, Europe or Asia... until now. Here at #WrestleMania, @TrueKofi becomes not only the first Ghanaian-born WWE Champion; he's also first WWE Champion born anywhere in the continent of Africa 3 Likes 2 Shares

All this while I thought Kofi is from Jamaica..Vince McMahon is a fucking racist..am not sure Kofi will defend the title for a long time..all the same, am so,happy for Kofi and The New Day 1 Like |

Sukakma:Very true,it's pure racism and to think of the extreme fights and trials he had to go through just to get a title shot at Wrestlemania for the WWE shows how racist the whole system is buh God been so good and through determination,he sailed through and eventually made history.He was born in Kumasi,Ghana and he's a Ghanaian American.The Jamaica part was part of the show buh he later changed it to represent Ghana his country. 1 Like |

chrisagyei:And to think he did the same to Asuka for the women's champion..never liked the man for a second..watch how someone else will take the title away from Kofi soon.. |
Re: Kofi Kingston Became The First Ever African Born WWE Champion by chrisagyei: 1:30pm On Apr 08, 2019 |

Rascism is in the blood of the white.... I'm not surprised.... |

KingWarri:very true,it's pure racism |
Re: Kofi Kingston Became The First Ever African Born WWE Champion by Sukakma(m): 5:31pm On Apr 08, 2019 |
chrisagyei:It must happen..just look at what he did to Asuka for the smackdown women's championship..because he's sh1t racist..he made that stupid Charlotte Flair win it knowing quite well that its winner takes all in WrestleMania for the Raw women's championship in which another super stupid woman Becky Lynch won it..am having tough time thinking Becky Lynch is the winner of two belts..that lady is a pain in the ass seriously..no thanks to that bastard Ronda Rousey who made sure Becky was reinstated..so annoying..i so much hate Becky Lynch, Charlotte Flair and Natalya..thsnk God Ronda is leaving..so there's no more storyline between her and Becky..only Charlotte Flair who is another bag of trash..imagine an injured Becky beating her in women's royal rumble this January..WWE is soo shit..unlike before..boring storylines.. |

Sukakma:very true,WWE has really lost it's quality now,they can't even create New superstars anymore so they are now relying on the older superstars for their main events.And also there is clear favoritism and discrimination especially with the fake diva Charlotte Flair who still rides on his father's legacy to get all the major title fights and fake wins.For Becky Lynch they are very ashamed that no major black diva has climbed to the highest level of the women's championship so they are pushing her up in a cheating manner and also due to her being the relative of Snoop Dog. |

chrisagyei:Wait, are you telling me Becky Lynch is black?? I thought she's Irish |
Re: Kofi Kingston Became The First Ever African Born WWE Champion by chrisagyei: 7:02pm On Apr 08, 2019 |
Sukakma:sorry it's Shasha Banks rather I wanted to talk about,her cousin is said to be Snoop Dog.Yea you're right,Becky Lynch is an Irish |
