After waiting patiently for over a decade, Kofi Kingston finally got his opportunity at WrestleMania this year and he seized the moment by defeating Daniel Bryan and winning his first World title in the company.
During a recent interview with talkSPORT, the New Champion discussed a number of things and also revealed Vince McMahon’s reaction on his title win.
Kofi first recalled the moments following his title victory saying that it was almost a blur for him and seeing happiness on the faces of people and his family was surreal.
Revealing Vince McMahon’s reaction to his win, Kingston said that everybody in the gorilla position was on their feet clapping and the Boss welcomed him with a huge smile on his face.
Apart from this, Kofi Kingston also talked about the critical remarks he has received from several WWE Hall of Famers since his championship win, like Billy Graham suggesting that he should start doing steroids to gain weight.
Kingston said that their opinions don’t affect him the slightest because he has a bigger mission. It’s a bigger picture type of thing for him and he welcomes all the criticism and feedback.
Kofi Kingston’s first PPV title defence is set to take place at the upcoming Money In The Bank on May 19th where he will be putting his title on the line against Kevin Owens.
