– Kofi Kingston spoke with WWE after last night’s Smackdown Live about getting a WWE title shot at Fastlane against Daniel Bryan.
He said: “I can’t make any guarantees. But what I said before is, when you stay ready, you ain’t got to get ready, and I’ve been ready for a long time. 11 years, Sarah. 11 years. I’ve been waiting for opportunities like this. Words cannot even describe how hyped I am right now. All my life, all I’ve ever wanted was a shot, a chance. Finally, at Fastlane, I’m going to get that chance one more time, and I can’t wait. You see, it’s not Valentine’s Day anymore but we’re still feeling the love, you know what I’m saying? It’s great, man. Like I said before, it feels like everybody has my back, man. The momentum… I told you about my friend – first name Mo, last name Mentum. And I keep him by my side at all times. These fine gentleman here… [Woods and Big E] my brothers. It’s all because of y’all, you know that, right? You understand that, right? … And what a ride it is.”
Meanwhile, Xavier Woods also commented on Kofi’s match on Twitter:
It's going to happen #KofiMania
