Randy got pissed with a spot he did with kofi and then held him back which is a shame because Kofi is one of the most talented person in wwe especially back then
Ok let’s not just skip over the first statement though. Kofi blew the spot that was supposed to end the match and still to this day accepts zero responsibility for it. Still blaming Orton to this day for KOFI botching the finish when he received his first opportunity to wrestle main event players. I’d be ok with Kofi blaming Orton for his delay in reaching the top if Kofi accepted the fact that he blew the spot and botched the match ending. But since he doesn’t accept responsibility for something that was 100% his fault in the first place, I totally understand why he was held back from reaching the top until more time went by for him to grow up and mature and not crumble under the bright lights on the main event stage.
Don't listen to these fool that replied That was one blown spot....ONE!! I have seen Randy blow spots before too. To try and ruin someone's career over one spot is ridiculous. I am happy Kofi redeemed himself and will be in the WWE Hall of Fame one day.
@@lionelwashington8419one big spot during your one moment? When did randy botch during his main event to the top? 😂 well this aged horribly cause Kofi fizzled out all by himself regardless ctfu. Had him dancing around with new day smh.

@@jaykirizz219nah I love Randy but someone publicly humiliates me over an honest mistake and then goes behind my back to derail my career; there is no being the bigger man I'm beating his ass on-site. Kofi isn't the only person he's done this shit to and it's incredibly unprofessional
@pitynacho6983 every single one of them make mistakes. Randy handled it like a child and not just being a man and saying "hey man, what happened? The finish was supposed to be a Punt. Whyd you get up?" Instead he threw a tantrum in the ring and then flexed his power backstage to set someone's career back. He's called The Viper not because he's deadly, he's just a snake
@@WhydTheyChangeOurNames well you know there is one night where Randy was not be able to finish the match because he perform the smashing hand on the mat thirsting for RKO. I don't really remember who he fight, then suddenly he gives a signal to the referee that he couldn't continue the match because he sprained his shoulder socket. thats why I called it a snake that bent its shoulder where eventually a snake doesn't have one.

@@jaykirizz219shut up. So you’re saying if you messed up and someone went and made it so you didn’t move up at your job it’s ok. You sound dumb as hell
Tbf, kennedy also violated the wellness policy so he was on thin ice already. Then again, randy violated it like 4 times and still gets a title reign every year, so...
You don't remember well then, Kennedy said it multiple times that he was at fault. He injured other wrestlers, got busted for weed/drugs twice, and was just all around bad guy backstage. He said that him injuring Orton that night was the last straw and Vince was like ok I'm sick of hearing Kennedy's name for bad things again just get him out. Sure he didn't get along with Orton, but that was the case for many other in the roster at the time. He also said he met up with Orton in like 2017 and they talked about their past and they are on good terms now. If you don't know the full story don't just say things cos other people will blindly believe it.
@TimidDarkrai I remember that immediately after he was released he blamed crybaby Orton for him losing his job. You must know that Orton had injured other wrestlers as well and has laughed about it on camera. You do know that Orton has failed several wellness checks concerning steroids right? Yet he was never released. I remember things as they were, you choose to be an Orton fan boy and have a skewed memory.
comment section doesn't pass the vibe check, Kofi is trying to keep the kayfabe real. It doesn't necessarily take one guy to impede someone's push. Do you really think that the entire locker room was on the same page with the likes of Cena or Austin to get the push, especially who was terrible in the ring during his early days.
That would have been a great storyline. It would have been a way better PPV than Brock Lesner. I hate the way Kofi lost the title to him, but Diddy McMahon didn't see the bigger picture when it came to building a storyline. Unless if you were a heel or superstar, he wanted to force down your throat.
Guys in the comment are just hating it's not like wwe wont take any action on him for unnecessary controversy Kofi is keeping the keyfabe To create more hype
Kofi Kingston became triple crown champion holding the IC, US, World tag team and tag championships within a spam of 3 in a half years before getting his push are you stupid ? He’s been winning every championship multiple times before winning the wwe championship
The best beef are the ones that are real. Its more passionate on the mic and in wrestling feuds. Matt Riddle and Seth rollins stuff was good😅 drew in interviews dissing cm punk in real life it explains why the rivalry is so good 💯 proud of Kofi. Randy can keep saying "its not personal, its not personal" but bruh youre messing with my check $ youre messing with my dreams, youre messing with my career. I take it pretty personal dude lol
It's good that Kofi held the title once in his life but do I want him to be the Maineventer? Answer is No!! He's a midcarder so his future runs with Midcard or Tag championship should be fine.
No, it is about just having a good storyline in WWE. All the great super star only had great storyline, Mark Henry if the storyline of Hall of Pain was maintained he would have been one of the greatest wrestlers. However, they just took this from him to limit his growth. Look at how great of a storyline we suppose to have had between Brock and Bobby Lashley but they wanted Bobby Lashley to always lose to Brock and how the feud between them end is because Lashley was not happy. It was lame how they made it seem Lashley was injured in the cage fatal fourway match.
@@lehlohonolomapitsi8607I’ve never heard any wrestler say they’ve been given good storylines. Unfortunately they’ve said THEY had to make it work. Occasionally, stars will be allowed to create their own storylines, but even Undertaker has admitted that his storylines were given to other talent after HE pitched it to Vince McMahon himself.
@justmedrea4361 this further support that certain superstars even though they are talented will never be great or given title opportunities because they are given bad storyline or are not allowed to have better storyline. Even if they come up with that storyline themselves.
Bull. If Cody Rhodes can become the WWE Champion and the face of the WWE after all the trash storylines and midcard moments, so can Kofi. He's extremely talented in the ring
Cap ….if u was right there …about to blow up and be the next champion the company would have sent u to the moon …however it says a lot about the wwe if Randy orton stop your push…it wasn’t Randy that had him held back it was wwe that company are funny about black wrestlers…
That moment when randy got mad at kofi and called him stupid may have been real, but everything else between orton and kofi is all just kayfabe. Outside the ring im sure orton has a great deal of respect for kofi.
Fuck Randy, he whispered “punt” while Kofi wasn’t even looking and then was flabbergasted to find that he didn’t know what the next move was. And that would be okay, but he TANKED Kofi’s career in revenge. Idk what else to call it but racism. If it was Randy and Daniel Bryan in the ring and the same mistake happened do you think he would have suffered in the same way? I doubt it. The viper needs skinning, make him some high end shoes for Kofi to strut in. Fuck’m
No it's because Kofi no matter how talented he was he's wasn't safe to work with at times if y'all actually believe Randy is the reason it took him so long to get the title your absolutely stupid no it's just that Kofi wasn't ready for the title
@@TimidDarkrai most talented how? Dude has like 7 moves and one of them is banned. He's lazy. He's been coasting on his daddy's influence and his evolution fame for years. Most overrated wrestler of all time. Kofi is goated. Unlike randy, nobody tells stories of him stepping on heads or being a doosh backstage. He has the most creative spots since the hardy boyz and sells mad merch wherever he goes. He's in the top 30, let alone 50.
Randy and Cena both had a ton of backstage power back then.
Cena refused to lose his title to Swagger in 2010 😂

Kayfabe baby 💯✨love to see it
Kofi, Mr.Kennedy. wonder who else he kept back
Randy knew you wasn’t ready !!!! And than he put u over to let u know u made it!!!
I mean Kofi was the one who botched the spot in a big match. I’ve never heard him say “I messed up. I wasn’t ready. I am now”
If screwing up a single spot/finish meant you weren't ready to main event the industry would have maybe 3 top guys ever.
He's not good enough, Shelton is the one who was unlucky
He’s great fym
