Kofi Kingston's chances of winning the world title?

Like 80% could happen. Just looking at who has been champion lately that I never thought should (despite liking a few) increases his odds. We are living in a time where everyone gets a ride on the horse.

From the Attitude Era to the PG Era to the " Meh" era.

Sadly, I don't see Kofi getting a run with the Championship, not to say, I don't think he is talented enough or what not, because I do enjoy Kofi work, but it would take some work to get him back to where he was, during his fued with Randy Orton, where he was almost primed to win it.

He is entertaining and is like someone said, is one of the people most marks care about, but his characters has taken a hit in the past year, since the end of the Orton fued, where he was constantly losing to Dolph Ziggler and Jack Swagger (who himself has somewhat been buried since winning the World Heavyweight Championship)

But however, Kofi as a heel would be a really bad thing, While they could tweak his character to be heelish at some point, it's his in-ring ability, that I think will falter and kill him as a Heel.

The thing that makes Kofi unique is his style of wrestling, being flashy and everything, and knowing how WWE books Heels, and limits there moves, it would kill anything that drew people to like Kofi in the first place.
