The looseness of WWE promos has become a credit to the promotion. It's a far cry from those dull-as-dishwater scripted ones the company used for years, and it actually allows performers to show off some personality.

Now Kofi Kingston gets to say Samoa Joe's ass it "too big to be playing hide and seek". What a line that was.

Kofi was referring to Joe's heelish ambushes from behind on Rey Mysterio, himself and others. The WWE Champ doesn't think the Samoan should be sneaking about attacking others when they're defenceless, and he managed to package up those feelings in one of this year's best insults.
