Kingston put in an amazing performance on last night's episode of SmackDown Live, competing in a gauntlet match as the chosen member from The New Day to replace Mustafa Ali on Sunday's pay-per-view.
The WWE veteran stole the show by defeating current WWE Champion Daniel Bryan, Jeff Hardy, and Samoa Joe before being submitted by AJ Styles, who subsequently lost to Randy Orton.
The gauntlet match was to determine the #6 entrant in the Chamber, but all anyone could talk about following the show was Kingston's performance; wrestling for nearly an hour and beating some of the best in the business.
