IYO: Kofi Kingston
 
Not a huge fan. But I don't mind him as he has decent in ring skills. I have never heard him on the mic :-\ so can't say much. Lets here it from your side.

CSL 09-13-2009 12:19 AM

LOVE Kofi Kingston, he's top notch

Afterlife 09-13-2009 12:20 AM

He's not bad. A good template.

Testicle 09-13-2009 12:21 AM

He is pretty over, his reaction on superstars this past week was very good. Although, I myself am not that high on him, he does have a charisma about him.

Afterlife 09-13-2009 12:28 AM

He's not a stereotypical miserable, angry, powerhungry wrestler. His sunny disposition helps him to stand out.

GD 09-13-2009 12:30 AM

His stunts in the MITBL match very pretty cool.

He was the single most impressive man in this year's MITB. Hands down.

Juan 09-13-2009 12:39 AM

Meh. There's no denying he's athletic and talented, and has connected with the fans though.

Seth82 09-13-2009 12:40 AM

He's an alright worker but haven't seen much of his matches for a long time

GD 09-13-2009 12:43 AM

Does he get on the mic?

On rare occasions.

Mr. Nerfect 09-13-2009 12:51 AM

I like Kofi Kingston. He's got charisma and ring skills. Plus, it is so hard to shine on RAW, and Kofi does not do that too badly. I look forward to seeing what he can do when he loses the US Title, or when he goes to another show.

Skippord 09-13-2009 02:20 AM

I like Kofi a lot

really want him to lose the US title to The Miz though

Juan 09-13-2009 02:22 AM

wtf @ the "gay" option

Skippord 09-13-2009 02:26 AM

that's for if you want to have gay sex with Kofi Kingston

CSL 09-13-2009 03:08 AM

For the record Guru Dave, you do not have to apologize/get worried/write a PM to Triple A about the fact that you included 'Gay' as an option :y:

Juan 09-13-2009 03:13 AM

lol

GD 09-13-2009 03:17 AM

Isn't it too late to apologize? :-\

Skippord 09-13-2009 03:36 AM

I voted gay BTW

Juan 09-13-2009 03:53 AM

JAMAICAN ME CRAZY

Skippord 09-13-2009 03:56 AM

UNO DOS ADIOS!

Skippord 09-13-2009 03:56 AM

I'd like for Kofi to control his frenzy on me, if you know what I'm sayin

Skippord 09-13-2009 03:57 AM

also that's the one thing I don't like about him

fucking Michael Cole and his stupid Controlled Frenzy shit

Rammsteinmad 09-13-2009 04:24 AM

Yay.

There's room for improvement, but he's pretty over and has some nice moves in his repertoire. Overall I haven't seen much of him though.

NoRoolz 09-13-2009 05:39 AM

Good, but not yet great.

I think an overly happy, emphatically clappy Jamaican gimmick can only go so far tbh.

Definitely has all the skills it takes though.

He's the next Shelton.
Great in the ring. Natural charisma. He has the potential, but won't be able to use it.

4 knuckles up 09-13-2009 08:07 AM

Love Kofi. Great in the ring, and decent enough on the mic from what i've heard. He was great in MITB. And his theme kicks ass.

Sixx 09-13-2009 08:15 AM

I didn't know that he speaks.

I thought he was just a crazy jamaican guy making weird noises and moving oddly.

Nicky Fives 09-13-2009 08:36 AM

Not the best, but far from the worst.... his athleticism is amazing

Chavo Classic 09-13-2009 09:51 AM

Coffee Kingston

Sixx 09-13-2009 09:55 AM

It fits.






































Because he's black!

Evil Vito 09-13-2009 10:37 AM

<font color=goldenrod>I like Kofi. The problem with him though is that he's going to be in the exact same predicament every smaller guy is in...will he be able to break through to the main event ala Mysterio, or will he be perennially stuck where he is?

FourFifty made a decent comparison to Shelton Benjamin...and Kofi seems to get better reactions than Shelton did when he was a face on Raw, so I hope that's a sign that he can move on to bigger and better things.</font>

screech 09-13-2009 11:38 AM

Kofi gets a yay from me. Very talented and quite over with the crowd. Don't know that he'll break through to the main event, but I would be pleased if he managed it.

Anybody Thrilla 09-13-2009 12:44 PM

I wasn't impressed when he first debuted, but he's getting pretty good now. Very entertaining. I mark out for Kofi sometimes and surprise myself.

Heel turn

GD 09-13-2009 01:12 PM

I am imagining a heel Kofi Kingston entry.

Anybody Thrilla 09-13-2009 01:21 PM

Kofi is soooooooooooo face, though. I can't even imagine him turning heel unless he goes the Nation of Domination route. That would be lame, though. Plus, his offense is too high octane to work as a heel.

XCaliber 09-13-2009 03:26 PM

He's a great athlete and makes a superb midcarder but I wouldn't have him in the main event scene unless they can somehow give his character more depth.

thedamndest 09-13-2009 03:36 PM

It's kind of funny what makes Dolph's character so great is he is a heel straight out of the 90's but one of the main problems with Kofi is that he is a face straight out of the same era. It's not really a problem right now because he is over enough with his ring charisma, but he will not make it to the next level without another transition.
