Speculate the Relocation (Kofi Kingston)
![]() From Jamaicanmecrazy to Ghana-rea. Kofi Kingston was announced as being from Ghana, West Africa on Smackdown X, apparently packing up and leaving his longtime home in Jamaica. This doesn't make much sense as he does most of his wrestling in the United States. Is Kofi Kingston moonlighting as the Ghana Federation Champion? Has he fathered a child from Ghana? Was Kofi forced to flea after committing a crime in Jamaica? Only you can... SPECULATE THE RELOCATION!!! |

On a half related note, I always laughed when they announced Finley as being from 'Belfast, Ireland'.

I'm almost willing to bet that they changed it because of the 'stigma' associated with Jamaicans and their 'lifestyle'

"Haiti" sounds too much like "Hades" and we don't want people thinking he's Greek.

I remember reading a news bit how Kofi's family where very upset with him being hailed from Jamaica and not his real home of Ghana. So maybe that had something to do with it.
Random thought: WWE should give Kofi a ruthless slum lord style gimmick whenever he turns heel. Make him the guy that everyone goes to to get something they need, but can't get ahold of themselves. Which he does, but he must be paid for it, or forces the superstar in need to do something for him. Then if they don't pay, he chops off limbs. |

I'm sure Taker's family is upset with him being billed from Death Valley and not Texas.

They aren't billing Kofi as someone that relocated to Ghana, for the record. He is being touted as African-born, but he spent a lot of his time in Jamaica. It's a way of not completely retconning the Jamaica stuff.
To be honest, I feel that it is so Kofi doesn't become completely tied-down by the fun-loving, Jamaican charatcer. He's developed a bit more of a meanstreak recently, and not he doesn't need to put a voice on during his promos. |

Just watched this, and I gotta say, I think King and Cole both do an alright job overall, but when they were saying "He's from Ghana, but he loves that Jamaican lifestyle," I was like, "Oh, come on, tell me another one". It just reeks of bullshit.

Recently there was a thread talking about how Kofi Kingston never seems like he could play a heel character. I don't know why, but as soon as I heard him announced from Ghana after previously knocking down The Miz during an interview earlier in the week, I could just see him being given an angry black man gimmick.

'Angry black man' hardly sounds like a gimmick.

Wikipedia makes Ghana sound like a pretty decent place. I don't know how angry he could be. Maybe because he has a trunk full of Kofi Kingston shirts with the Jamaican flag on them?

Also, an angle where he gets pissed that he was billed as a Jamaican instead of a proud...I guess, "Ghanan"...could be interesting. |
