Kofi Kingston Has Stern Warning For Negative WWE Fans
Kofi Kingston doesn’t want to be told certain things by WWE fans, especially at the wrong time.
For most of his 15+ years on the WWE main roster, Kofi Kingston was one of the company’s most beloved wrestlers.
Wrestling fans who have followed Kofi’s career will never forget his lone WWE Championship win at WrestleMania 35 aka KofiMania because it was such an incredible moment for a deserving veteran wrestler.
Kofi Kingston is currently one-half of the WWE World Tag Team Champions with Xavier Woods. They are still using “The New Day” name, but they have a new attitude after being jerks to their former partner Big E during a decade-long celebration segment in late 2024.
In an interview with Unlikely’s Adrian Hernandez, Kofi Kingston discussed the hate he receives from WWE fans.
“Don’t talk to me. Don’t think that because you bought a ticket that you have the right to shake my hand. Don’t come up to me and say, well, I bought a ticket to the show, so I should be able to get a picture, and you are obligated to come over to me. That is not true. I don’t have to do that. Do not come over and try to shake my hand and try to take a picture with me early in the morning when I’m trying to go to work.
If I’m sitting in first class, when you are on your way to last class, don’t sit there with your camera and do a thumbs down so you can get a little viral show a nd go tweet that stuff out. Then don’t like people, don’t like the pictures and posts, when people post disrespectful pics like that, don’t like them because you perpetuate that. You perpetuate the negativity.”
“I Don’t Suck” – Kofi Kingston
These days, many WWE fans like to chant “New Day sucks” instead of “New Day rocks,” so Kofi also had some thoughts for those fans.
If I am in my everyday life, going to work, doing what I want to do, if I’m hanging out with my family, I don’t need you to tell me how much I suck.
Because look here. (gestures to championship). Look here. You see this? You see it? you see that? You see that? That means that I don’t suck. So don’t come across as a liar when you tell me that I do. When I’m on the top of the mountain with my boy, Xavier Woods, one half of the WWE World Tag Team Champions. We are your boys, The New Day.”
As the World Tag Team Champions on Raw, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods are trying to avoid a WrestleMania 41 rematch against The War Raiders, who want to get their hands on the champions one more time.
