Kofi Kingston is so close to that long-overdue WWE Championship opportunity... so close, and yet so far.
The New Day confronted Vince McMahon in the ring tonight on SmackDown LIVE after his shenanigans at Fastlane, and The Chairman was unmoved by Xavier Woods and Big E's praise of their veteran partner. He did seem a bit more appreciative of Kofi's heartfelt promo, however, and agreed to give him his shot at Daniel Bryan's WWE Title - on one condition.
On next week's show, Kofi is going to have to get through Randy Orton, Samoa Joe, Sheamus, Cesaro and Rowan in a Gauntlet Match if he wants to make it to the promised land and take on the WWE Champion at WrestleMania.
Can he possibly do it? He bloody better!
