Many have said that Kofi Kingston winning the WWE Championship at WrestleMania was the greatest feel-good moment of the whole show.

They may want to keep Reigns and Orton out of the world title picture for this very reason.

SmackDown Live has a lot of goodwill and I know that a lot of our own readers have said that Reigns moving to SmackDown Live could be a very bad sign. They feel that it spells the end of Kofi Kingston's reign as WWE Champion. But they need not fear anymore.
