Just in case you forgot - Kofi Kingston is really good. He's been doing this for over a decade now, and it's easy to take veterans like him for granted. However, given that he's been with The New Day and seen so much tag team success over the last four years and change, it's quite easy to forget that he is still one of the most talented, athletic superstars on the WWE roster.

The match was somewhat of a reminder of what Kofi Kingston was capable of. While he may not possess the wide variety of arsenal that Daniel Bryan displayed tonight, he can most definitely hold his own and the heart he displayed was absolutely unforgettable.

It's not a performance that's easily forgotten, and it will forever go down as one of his career-great moments despite losing. He's probably created a lot of buzz about himself now.
