Forget the awful Jamaican accent and gimmick, Kofi Kingston was actually born in Ghana before moving to the US at just a year of age.
An Intercontinental, US and Tag Team Champion, Kofi is easily the greatest wrestler to come out of Ghana, and he’s currently doing wonders as a member of The New Day; a role which has revitalised and re-energised the tired Kofi Kingston character that we’d seen for so many years.
Whether he ever makes it to the main event level, that’s up for debate at this point. Either way, not everybody is a main event superstar, and Kofi’s had a great career to date. Plus he’s always good for a Royal Rumble spot each and every January.
