Last Tuesday night On SmackDown LIVE, New Day Members Big E & Xavier Woods were able to defeat five other teams in order to win a Tag Team Gauntlet Match that gave Kofi Kingston an opportunity against WWE Champion “The New” Daniel Bryan at WrestleMania. After the match, Kofi Kingston celebrated with his teammates as well as several members of The SmackDown LIVE roster.
One individual who thinks that Kofi Kingston doesn’t deserve to go to WrestleMania and receive a WWE Title shot is WWE Hall Of Famer “Superstar” Billy Graham. Graham recently took to his Facebook and said that he wasn’t thrilled about a “145 pound WWE Champion” and called the whole thing a “joke.” Below is his full post:
Is The WWE Serious???
I turned on my computer today and went to the wrestling news sites and what did I see? Kofi Kingston vs Daniel Bryan for the WWE Championship at mania. Talk is Vince is going to put that WWE belt on Kofi Kingston…. S—…..You…not me, will have a 145 pound WWE champion. This must of been an idea by the new Sr. Creative Lady Dana Warrior? Meltzer says she has been promoted to an extremely high position on the creative team and attends meeting that only Vince, H and Step are in…damn…how did she get so smart???
My friend Hannibal has been monitoring the Monday Night RAW steady decline in TV viewership. Well Hannibal, it dropped again last night in Boston, Monday, March 25th. Steady decline in TV viewership. I predict that this years mania will be so bad that next year, 2020, will not come close to selling out. The thrill is gone. Is anyone out there really excited to see these 2 light weights wrestle for the WWE Championship ? Oh, one more thing. I would love to see Kofi at 145 pounds put his newly won WWE belt on the line against Brock Lesnar, great logistics, 1 man being out-weighed by a good 135 pounds, a total joke this thing is. – S.B.G.
