3 Reasons why Kevin Owens replaced Kofi Kingston at Fastlane

#1 Kofi Kington could face Daniel Bryan at WrestleMania 35

The WWE Universe was excited to see a bout between Kofi Kingston and Daniel Bryan at Fastlane. With Owens replacing the New Day member, the match is still possible at the Grandest Stage of Them All. Kingston and Bryan could collide at Metlife Stadium if the latter manages to retain the WWE title at Fastlane.

Kingston attained immense popularity in recent weeks after his incredible performance in the Gauntlet match on SmackDown Live. As a matter of fact, he also lasted 31 minutes in the Elimination Chamber match before Bryan overpowered him to retain the WWE title. WWE could be planning to continue his impressive momentum, but the remarkable run could halt if Bryan pins Kingston in Cleveland.

Considering the mind-boggling run of Daniel Bryan, he is not expected to lose the title at Fastlane. Bryan has been a remarkable champion after he grabbed the title last year. With the recent popularity of Kingston, he could be the WrestleMania opponent of the current WWE champion. Kingston could win his maiden WWE World title at the Show of Shows if he faces Daniel Bryan in New Jersey.
