Oh dear Kofi!
Oh dear Kofi!

If there's anything that WWE has done to perfection so far, Kofi Kingston's story has been the epitome of it. He has come out of nowhere to become one of the most over stars in the business. It feels even more tremendous when we consider that he wasn't even wrestling as a singles competitor a few months ago, lest fighting as the “face” of the SmackDown roster.

Now, it would have been a good thought to put the title on Kofi to appease a fan base that hasn't really been appreciative of the product recently, shouting to get what they want. However, WWE has gone the brave route by continuously robbing the veteran out of deserved spots, risking fans anger and hatred. The result has been “must-see” television.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

Kofi Kingston is an immensely sympathetic character; someone who fans want to see win the WWE Championship. And, WWE has consistently teased offering a bite to its fans of the food they want, snatching it from millimeters away before we can eat. It's been incredible.

It doesn't matter if Kingston will win the title at 'Mania or not, but credit to WWE for making it a story that has everyone involved, snatching away some spotlight from the Universal and RAW Women's Championship stories.

Author's note: I'm sport for a Daniel Bryan win here.
