How Good Was Kofimania? (2019)

- Опубликовано: 11 июл 2024
- In WWE we've seen our fair share of crowing moments, moments where underdogs become top dogs. Everyone from Shawn Michaels to Eddie Guerrero & Jeff Hardy. These performers lived for pro wrestling and won over the hearts of many wrestling fans. Similar to this was Kofi Kingston. Kofi had been with the WWE for 11 years in 2019, and in those 11 years, he had been one of the most consistent and exciting talents in the business. He had worked his hardest to do whatever was asked of him. He had won every title in WWE except for one, the WWE championship. But in 2019 KofiMania was born and the rest as they say is history.

Daniel Bryan knew what it felt like to go into Mania as an ultimate, fan favorite underdog. Putting Kofi over was a very respectable move. I respect Bryan and everyone else involved in the decision to put over Kofi at the Grandest Stage of Them All.
Bryan is showing off n AEW
Wat doesn't put over jebroni
I always like to look at the bigger picture. Kofi has cemented his legacy, he’s practically a grand slam champion and future Hall of famer absolutely. He’s paid his dues, he worked his butt off for eleven years and it paid off brilliantly. Daniel Bryan, Vince McMahon, even Orton all did well to put Kofi over and just like Bryan years before in the same shoes as Kofi, had an insurmountable heap of fan support. Yes it ended terribly but this is the WWE they don’t stand on ceremony. Not only are they great at telling underdog stories but also delivering sick twists just for the sake of shock value too. It’s part n parcel of the WWE product. His reign was so lengthy that we all still remember it. It’s just bad when you win a title but drop it within a day or a week. Kofi had for 6 months, he made his mark. As I mentioned earlier, Vince has a way of making you look unstoppable one minute then a complete joke the next. Examples: Bianca Blair dropping the title in squash like fashion to Becky Lynch in an impromptu match at Summerslam. The fiend dropping the belt to Oldberg then fast forward a year later and his last ever match takes place at wrestlemania where he jobs to Orton after just one RKO. Effectively ending the match within less then a minute. Ouch. Finally CM Punk’s summer title reign was a joke. This guy delivered arguably the greatest promo in the WWE that your ever likely to see, he founded a new zeitgeist, a new era, for the WWE universe back in 2011 but then he spent the whole summer feuding with Kevin Nash over a text. A flipping text. You see WWE storytelling is never without a sense of irony or controversy.
Kofi is mid card at best. Daniel Bryan definitely did the right thing, but Kofi isn’t and never will be a main event talent like Daniel Bryan
@@master-of-mind5881 WWE 100% did the right thing with Brock squashing him. He’s never been more than a mid card talent
The buildup to KofiMania was one of the best and most emotional I’ve ever seen, almost as good as Bryan’s. DB deserves credits too for being the perfect heel for Kofi’s buildup
I will give Bryan wayyyy more credit. He carried that feud.
yep

KofiMania was Great and also helped by the fact that Daniel Bryan was the Antagonist whereas a couple of Years Prior, he was the Underdog looking to Win the World Title at WrestleMania … 💯
db proved that the understands character work to a T.
Agreed Bro
Plppl
I'm glad I can just watch wrestling for fun, and not compare these wrestlers to some great athlete that actually wins without a scripted fake competition. Damn yall really take this stuff that seriously?
Kofi's run was really good, in my opinion. It was a solid, lengthy 6 month title reign and he beat many top names in the company. The only bad thing about it was the way it ended, but then again, what matters is the title reign itself, and not the way the holder loses it.
honestly kofi was the only good world champ out of the new day, idk if xavier has had any world title wins cause i only started watching wwe about 4 years ago after an 8 year break from wrestling but big e's reign was shit ngl
Yea. Historically it always matters how you lose the title. The way he lost it was disgraceful. Not that kofi is the rock. But cud u imagine the rock getting stunnered in 10 seconds and losing a title on a non ppv event. Cmon now. That was straight disrespectful what they did to Kofi. Idk why he even allowed such a thing. Id rather take a paycut then get done like that as champion.
legit tho, why the hell did kofi charge at brock, brock demolished him.
@@maclion3714 he got destroyed by Brock Lesnar, sorry but that's how it should have ended. Kofi being even remotely capable of having a somewhat competitive match with him would have been stupid.
Fun fact Brock Lesnar best both Kofi Kingston and Big E to win the WWE championship
@@TimeBomb014X its easy to write an interesting match between the two. Just like triple h did for himself all those years. A regular match ok. But not a title match thats bullshit idc how dominant brock is. And big e definitely shouldn't have gotten snatched like that. I've seen crazier things in wrestling. So it ain't hard to make things right. And thats not taking anything from brock. I like Brock. I just think they could easily make things interesting. And they don't do many other champions like that. That was sketch
I’ll never forget how happy me and my family were for Kofi when he won. We were cheering loudly and crying at the same time. Seeing his career ever since the beginning, it was really beautiful stuff. I wish I can relive that moment again.
It was just an organic moment, everyone and their mom was cheering on Kofi
Me too! But I did feel like his WWE championship reign had potential. There was a video of partfunknown when Adam books on how he would do KOFIMANIA and I like his revamp version better.
Bet you’re black lmao
My mom cried when she saw it. XD
You can relive it. Just watch it again . Cause he's never gonna be champion again. He may have deserved it. I still wasn't buying it. He's good but to me he's a mid carder.
I've been a Kofi fan ever since he debuted. Dude has a natural personality that you can't hate
He needs his Jamaican gimmick back
yes he is great
dudes just too easy to like.

Kofimania was brilliant. I was fortunate enough to be in attendance at WM 35. I was in tears when he won.

no doubt
true.

Kofi and Bryan was probably the best WM moment Kofi brought out his family and celebrated for atleast 10mins straight with shirts ect you could literally feel his happiness this is the definition of a WM moment
Kofimania is an absolute masterpiece
the buildup 100 percent

*disaster
*master piece of sh!t
For those saying ratings fell under Kofi as champ they were fallling before he was champion and Brock winning the title didnt do much for them either. they were so bad Fox who wanted a more sports oriented show where shooters like Brock were booked extra strong .Allowed WWE go back to a more traditional formula to fix them .
To those who say where Kofi faced no credible oppenents he faced AJ Styles and Sami in a triple threat , Dolph Ziggler , Kevin Owens , Samoa Joe Randy Orton before losing to Brock If those arent credible opponents in your eyes then I dont know what is .
Most people's problem with Kofi as champion was they wanted him to do and be the exact oppopsite of the character that made him popular in the New Day and got him in the world title picture in the first place .Bookingf sucked the life out of his reign with unecessary rematches. So the intial appeal of each fued he had was gone by the end of it . He did have standout matches though the triple threat vs Styles and Zayn , 2/3 falls vs Ziggler, Extreme Rules vs Samoa Joe , Night of Champions vs Randy Orton , vs Kevin Owens at MITB it was decent reign.
@Warge, yep they are talking to you
Right I swear it’s the most annoying thing when they say his reign was boring
Man, they really made Kofi go through the most to be WWE champion. Just to lose it to Lesnar in a few seconds. 😔
I loved the ending to his title reign. #ThankyouBrock
I remember sitting infront of my TV saying this is ending in. 8 seconds.... it ended in 9 lmao.

I think it was incredible, Kofi finally got what he deserved after being so loyal to the company that gave him a chance. Leading up to Mania, it was perfect. The storyline, the unbeatable villain with the huge henchman, and the underdog who's forte was tag-team wrestling. And the climax when Kofi pinned Bryan, magical. I will admit it did cool down after the summer and his reign shouldn't have ended in 7 seconds.
Imagine going to see Rambo in theatres, and leaving out thinking how great of a black ops soldier Stallone was in real life. Lol.
Kofi is a first ballot hall of famer, even before winning the WWE title. He had consistently worked hard and remained loyal to WWE for more than 11 years
I don't think people talk enough about how important KofiMania was, cuz this storyline and moment paved the way for more black/POC talent in WWE to be in top tier positions like Bobby Lashley, Bianca Belair, Big E, etc.
Yes
Also the ratings start going down, thanks to kofimania.
Glad he got squashed by Brock.
Even Brock can’t save WWE after that disaster

i did cuz u know they only did it for wrestlemania then he was a non event till brock destroyed him
@@jamesthompson3023 the title reign part of it was horrible but that moment was very good
Kofi Mania was so awesome,the match with Bryan was also awesome but he delivered with the title reign and the ending was... not what we expected/wanted to see
I loved the ending to his title reign
Kofi Kingston is really one of the most consistent wrestlers of all time. He made WWE need him. he’s one of those guys that make the casual viewer wanna tune into whatever match they throw him in cause they know he’s gonna do something entertaining. That’s why he was in so many MITB matches
I can’t say enough how emotional this storyline made me especially as a black man. You reviewing KofiMANIA almost made me cry.
Everything before Kofi became champion >>> everything that happened after Kofi became champion, so it’s just about good.
glad you enjoyed it man, its an uplifting story.
KOFI MANIA IS ALWAYS GOOSEBUMPS FOR ME
IT'S MY EMOTION
The buildup was amazing. That gauntlet match where he beat many of the top stars in 1 night made him a really credible champion.
Only to be ruined in 5 seconds.....
Brilliant vid 1nce again, this guy really doesn't miss
Truly one of the greatest moments in WWE, absolutely incredible
the title regin might not be the best but his kofimania storyline and his win was epic
It was a good time🔥
one of the greatest build ups to a wrestlemania title win ever, sucks the reign was very lackluster
it was good nothing special but not bad, you cant say his title defense against Randy wasn't good it was great realistic story

KofiMania baaaabeeee! All man this was so good. Awesome video 🙌
I been rocking with kofi since I was a kid, and finally seeing him win the title was so gratifying.
The ending of kofi's reign was thou😆
Kofi Kingston should get a rematch.
#JusticeForKofi 🔥
hey man he already earn a rematch against bobby lashley
Maybe if Lesnar wins it again, they can create a feud around it.
I think kofimania was the only good buildup for WWE Championship in the past few Wrestlemanias.
Yooo Kofi-mania was good as hell! His whole championship run was pretty good. Minus the loss to Brock Lesnar. They really didn't have to do that. 🤦🏾♂🥱 But the run itself, was INCREDIBLE! Big ups my guy! Nice video. 💯🙌🏾
I haven’t watched WWE since 2012 but this story literally is bringing me to tears.
The stars aligned to make this happen. It was audible that was never meant to happen but I’m damn glad it did. Daniel Bryan acting as the Triple H to Kofi’s story was icing on the cake. Everything about this was wrestling gold!
Honestly I think people (especially the indie nerds) are being too negative about the reign because of his New Day gimmick. Of course, I’m not saying it’s the best reign and they could have certainly done better but it was a great reign nonetheless.(Not considering the last match tho)
Great reign? Lmfao he was one of the worst wwe champions of all time period. Even Mahal was a better champion than Kofi.

The way everything happened to Koffi unexpected and the way he got over was out of the blue. It was so emotional, so hurtful, felt so good and it was just amazing. i've only ever felt like this with DAniel bryan.
Fun fact: kofi Kingston some of the most wins in wwe History ( top 15)
This was the first match I ever watched in wwe kofimania is the reason Kofi is my favorite of all time
The Best and most emotional moment for me was the show of respect by the Usos
Best underdog Story is Rey Mysterio for Eddie Guerrero, Jeff Hardy for fans, Daniel Bryan for redemption of Authority, Kofi Kingston for Underrated wrestlers
been waiting for this
since the poll u made
hope you enjoy!
Him winning at WM35 was the highlight for me. I lost it when it happened.
Kofimania Briefly brought me back to why I loved WWE
I agree with you. The lead-up to Mania was incredible. When Kofi finally won the title, I damn near cried. Unfortunately, the aftermath was really weak. I especially didn't care for Ziggler facing Kofi. If anything, that "It should've been me" shtick should've gone to Ali. The matches were good enough, but I just couldn't get invested. The Samoa Joe fued was similarly whatever, but the fued with Randy was pretty good. Then along comes Bork Laser just for some 2 minute squash match in Saudi against some other UFC guy who dips not long after. That was the point I stepped away from WWE. Well, that, The Fiend being ruined, Rusev getting cucked, and the Saudi show in general which to me just feels like a bunch of glorified house shows, and Raw in general just being a chore to watch.
The way you tell us the story is just💥💥
This video was 16 minutes but it felt like it was 8
Dude this was gonna make a great road to wrestlemania
Kofimania was far more sweeter than Mustafa Ali’s main event push would’ve ever been. This underdog storyline was a spectacle to watch.
Since the Brand split in 2016, Smackdown is the one who is always produce a great storyline!
From Styles/Cena Rivalry, AJ Styles title run to Kofi Mania. And now the current run of Roman Reigns also happen on Smackdown!
I agree but 2019 SmackDown was weak asf

Honestly he had some memorable moments during his run. Never forget the time when he flipped his finger at Joe 😂
The advice Jericho gave Kofi on how 2 handle Vince lol love that story
Kofi mania was the best storyline in recent years, after the 3 yeras that it has been since then, none has topped it
He's never gonna up
He'll never let us down
Hes never gonna not run around
He'll never desert us
My personal opinion, if a title win comes of a great feud, has at least 1 good feud, and loses the title in a way that furthers the story.
Kofi’s run up to Mania was great, his feud with Orton was the spark needed, and while it sucks it was Kofi, it did get the heat WWE wanted Lesnar to have.
If you was in Houston that night for elimination chamber like me. You were so happy for kofi. We all wanted him to win. It was his turn. The fact they cut his reign so short pisses me off. Wwe hates having the guys like kofi as champ. It’s always gotta be a brute force type of guy as champ. Also the fact they just didn’t have Jeff hardy and kofi fight each other for the belt. Still pissed me off so much man
One of the greatest storylines period
Awesome...
Love ur channel keep making vedios and well keep supporting
Thank you :)
Kofi winning was just wholesome
your storytelling is great man
Thank you brotha☝🏻
Just ending was brutal
All of the fight against kofi not getting a wwe championship match r belt was what made this story great
i think the Usos amd New Day segment was gold. it protected the usos, and show humanity
You posted so early today
This story was very well written
Just Goosebumps
Kofi one of the best things he have been in the bussines for a good while he deserved the title. Sometimes the unpredictable and underdogs need this run not just the “top guys” but I was so shocked that he won but happy at the same time. Smackdown live with Shane and Daniel Bryan was something it was truly the land of opportunity everybody got a chance at least one chance. But 2016-17 was peak in smackdown even raw was good too.
its like a Road to Wrestlemania in SVR kinda storyline
The Bryan Vs Kofi feud was brilliant feud I remembered the contract signing where it didn't end with a brawl which was different
Underrated www athlete you cannot deny this mans work ethic
Good sure the story after lacked but the build up was amazing they had pulled so many twists i couldnt tell who was gonna win itll always be my favorite story and he will truly be a hall of famer

Very very very good and emotional
Good video. Please make a video about AJ Styles a year long title reign in 2017-2018.
Kofi will always be my favorite wrestler
That gauntlet match with the usos forfeiting is a legendary moment. I get chills every time i watch it. Kofimania was the only good thing in 2019
I loved kofi since the beginning seeing this is heart warming
It’s so cool and ironic that it was Daniel helping Kofi do the same thing he did
That was the best angle in years, it brought me back to watching wwe. Dolph match shouldn’t have been a cage but s ladder. Why confine 2 athletes like that in a cage, ridiculous.
The build up to Kofimania was awesome but his title reign went stale real quick.
agreed.
I loved it. He had a great moment at WrestleMania and did nothing but put on awesome matches as champion throughout his run. What more could I really ask for outside of petty bs?
