But in order to fulfill his dream, Kofi has to get past the reigning WWE Champion, Daniel Bryan, at the showcase of immortals.

Kingston has got over every obstruction that Vince McMahon has laid in his path as his quest to become the WWE Champion continues. All three members of New Day have stood together in this storyline as their brotherhood has been displayed in a tremendous fashion.

By this time the New Day and ardent WWE followers have become accustomed to the Gauntlet matches simply because there have been too many on Tuesday nights.

The very beginning of this eventful ride for Kofi happened via a gauntlet match on the SmackDown episode before Elimination Chamber, and ever since that night, there have been numerous highs in this heroic journey of the New Day member.

Kofi has been immensely supported by his New Day brothers as they've been instrumental in Kofi's commendable story. Xavier Woods and Big E fought in yet another Gauntlet match on SmackDown Live last week as they were put in a mighty tough task of facing numerous tag teams on the blue brand.

McMahon's stipulation was crystal clear that if The New Day loses, that means Kofi too loses his chance of competing in a world title match at Mania. Woods and Big E performed out of their skins as they defeated some of the top tag teams in the company and even got the better of Daniel Bryan and Eric Rowan in order to make sure that Kofi reaches the pinnacle come April 7 at MetLife Arena.

What may happen next?

Here we share our opinion as to what may happen as the two superstars sign the contract for their WrestleMania 35 clash.

Kofi's road hasn't been entirely smooth up until this point! The Jamaican has endured a lot in order to be reckoned as the rightful challenger for the WWE Championship. Kofi's New Day brothers - Big E and Xavier woods have stood by their teammate's side in this entire storyline and have been instrumental in ensuring Kofi lives his dream of competing for the biggest prize in the industry at the Grandest Stage of them all!

With that being said, Kofi's path has been full of obstacles as Vince McMahon remain adamant about his opinion of Kofi. The Chairman has tried every bit to rob Kofi of his opportunity at the title, but to Vince's displeasure, all have failed.

Xavier Woods and Big E have been the pillars of strength for Kofi this entire time and McMahon will surely look to curtail their impact on the match at WrestleMania by barring them from ringside.

This will add yet another twist in this eventful ride for Kofi Kingston!

#2 Bryan gets to choose a special stipulation

WWE has played to the tune of Daniel Bryan in this storyline, so expect the WWE Champion to exercise some more power as he makes the WrestleMania clash with Kofi Kingston official on SmackDown Live.

Daniel Bryan has been tremendous as a heel and Vince McMahon has undeniably portrayed his favoritism towards Bryan in this whole feud. The Chairman continues to stress that Daniel is the deserving holder of the WWE Championship and Kofi has little to offer in front of the former GM of SmackDown Live.

WWE Creative have put various efforts to showcase Kofi Kingston as the underdog in this scenario, and yet another advantage for Daniel will further solidify the case.

Imagine if Daniel Bryan gets to choose a special stipulation or decide the match type! This will surely infuriate the WWE Universe and make Kofi's chances look bleaker.

#1 Kofi has to cross yet another hurdle!

Kofi Kingston's WrestleMania story is reminiscent of Daniel Bryan's famous YES moment in 2014. Bryan was in the eye of the storm known as the McMahon family as the Authority did anything they could in order to deny Daniel his WrestleMania moment.

But the story had a happy end as Bryan went on to win the main event and register one of the most iconic victorious in the history of WrestleMania. The Yes Man first battled Triple H to earn his right to be in the main event of the night.

Bryan defeated The Game before conquering Randy Orton and Batista in the final match of the evening to leave WrestleMania 30 as the WWE World Heavyweight Champion.

WWE might look to put Kofi under the same kind of scenario in order to make his journey even more inspiring.

Imagine Vince McMahon interrupts the contract signing to add yet another obstruction in Kofi's path by putting in some sort of qualifying match before the big dance! The Internet will break down and WWE enthusiasts would be all around screaming about it!
