Well, there were two world titles back then. And if I am not wrong when Kofi got his #1 contender match for WWE Championship against Orton, Punk was feuding with Jeff Hardy for the World Heavyweight Title on Smackdown. So they could have been champions at the same time.
Yeah I think he means 2009-2010 kinda thing but still during punks prime years, we all know nobody else shouldve been getting that mega star push like punk in 2011-2012
He's a midcarder at best. He never has had a good gimmick and he's the least charismatic, smallest looking guy in The New Day. Not saying he's bad, but people act like he's been this top elite wrestler all this time. The only time he got support for a main title run was after his Elimination Chamber performance and the fact that the crowd loves the underdog story. Nobody was clamoring for him to win the rumble. It was the EC.
@@davidfebreeze428kofi was over for a while and then Randy killed his momentum by bitching about him to the higher ups. I guess at least he made things right now but kofis career could’ve been a lot different if Randy hadn’t done that
Yes I disagree with a comedy act getting a world title run but Kofi had more then enough success in his solo career to make up for it. He was booked strong and as a fighting champion during his run, even going over after Randy who cost him a main event run all those years ago. Storytelling wise, that was fantastic and really showed faith from management in him. Also guy had been busting his ass for 10+ years now and is part of one the most over acts right now. Love him or hate him, agree or disagree, Kofi deserved it and was one of the few to be able to take the ball and run with it
I wouldn't call the new day "a comedy act". Yes the jokes are there but they've always took the matches seriously enough. It's not like the new day didn't have tons of titles prior to it.
@@zekun4741 i think he means Kofi at 180 days champion. Punk was champion for 434 days. But yeah I agree with your comment. It should've been a triple threat match at Wrestlemania between Punk, Cena, and Rock.

The best thing about kofi's title win was it didn't happen last year so it felt more organic. Daniel being the antagonist was perfect, considering he was in kofi's spot so it was full circle for him as well.

I don't know of anyone who has a bad word to say about Kofi Kingston. I've met a few people who have worked with Kofi, even if just for a short time, and all of them said he was a great dude, super nice, super respectful. Even though his title run was booked as an afterthought, the moment of him winning was the main highlight of that wrestlemania.
Both Kofi and E's reigns should have happened 10 years ago, however during these 10 years the built the most successful Trio in the WWE history. it's like it was delayed because they were busy doing something equally as good.
It was overdue, but I'm glad it happened, I had never seen the belt on a black man before, so yeah, as a black man myself, I was very happy😁. That said, I was beyond disgusted with how they ended the title run😡

The term "shoot" is so overused now. Every time a wrestler opens their mouth and isn't parroting the script it's a shoot. It's a part of the larger issue that fans care way, way too much about the booking side and not enough about the fact that it's a weekly episodic television show no different to mandalorian or anything else.
It has never actually meant that, that's just what people assume it's supposed to mean because that is the way it is more often used. But shoot has always just meant unscripted.

I think when all this covid stuff is over they should put the strap on Apollo, turn him super heel and then do a face turn. We need another black champion and I’ve liked Apollo for a really long time. Dude has that stout build tho he’s not tall he performs bigger than he is
K4 Josiah I didn’t say that, I’ve always loved the way he wrestles. Dude is Uber athletic and does shit I could never do on my best of days. I was just eluding you how wwe never had black champions and if they were to have another one I’d want it to be him
Why is every wrestler video/interview called a "Shoot" now a days? Can't just be called CM Punk talks about Kofi? Gotta call it a shoot " Oh man Punk must be mad about Kofi winning, better click on this video"
Who else came from NXT In Your House where they had the commercial for WWE ice cream bars… Had me in my own house talkin bout “YOURE 6 YEARS TOO LATE, WHERE WAS THIS WHEN PUNK WAS ASKING??”
"All you meant by "We want change" is "Make CM Punk a star" - John Cena. Was Cena right? One would almost say so. But it will be interesting to see how Punk's image will develop over the coming months. Will he be seen as a sellout by those who used to buy into his "voice of the voiceless" shtick or will he be able to retain some appearance of authenticity? Is he going to turn heel? etc.
I think Punk meant everything he said when he said it. I just think it's a simple reality that times change, he grew, and everyone changed. Including WWE. Those changes allowed potential for reconciliation. He didn't "sell out" he grew up.
Dude, I'd wanted kofi to win the world title ever since I saw his feud with randy orton all those years back. He instantly became my favorite. So glad it worked out for him.
Kofi never paid edge back for that either. How cool would it have been for kofi to have been still holding a grudge for that after all these years leading to a feud with edge.
@@codino97 hmmm, but isn't a shoot within a wrestling performance? I understand what you're saying, but I believe a shoot is when they go for the non kayfabe talk, but within the context of a performance. This is more of an interview, I believe.

Just psyched that CM Punk is back straight up
Kofi was one of the most unbelievable, unconvincing champions of all time and it shows one of the problems with modern WWE. He basically won the title because he's been around a long time and has been a good hand and he's a nice guy. That's not how the business works. The belts are worth nothing when everyone wins them and is supposedly deserving of them just by default. It's like how they are presenting Belair as a contender and likely next champion because 'she is nice and works hard'. No shit - the vast majority of the roster are nice and work hard. I'm not saying she shouldn't be the contender because you have a handful of performers you could build to fill that role, but that's seriously the way they're going to do it? What's wrong with angling it that 'at this moment in time, she is the best women's wrestler in the world' or what have you? and if that isn't true, maybe they're not the right person. Just look at the Attitude Era - From 1997 to 2001, name one person who was world champion who wasn't a legitimate top talent who deserved to win? Rock, HHH, Stone Cold, Mick Foley, Undertaker, Kane, Shawn Michaels, Brett Hart, Chris Jericho, Kurt Angle. All of them are amongst the biggest names in the history of the business. No one was thrown a bone. At most you might say they threw Foley the opportunity, but this is also Foley who was in one of the top 5, top 10, what have you, matches of all time in Hell in a Cell. Bona fide star.
I’m happy that Kofi got to win the wwe champion finally, but Punk is right, he should’ve won it 10 years ago, even as a kid, i was his biggest fan. The way he lost it was a big disgrace, but the west randy ruined kofi’s push over a stupid botch is even a bigger disgrace, hence why i never was a fan of randy orton in the beginning
Punk loves Kofi and still considers him a friend; they had a great tag team for a time

@@Maxx_d13 jinder mahal is big. So was Khali. I bet you think they made great champions.
@@PilloTheStar I am 33 dude I haven’t watch wrestling live since 2001. I don’t care who the champion is…. I cared when I was a kid because again, I was a KID
before Punks return last week which included ice cream bars. they did release ice cream
bars. unfortunately it happened after he left the E im actually enjoying one right now they are kinda spot on with the cookie on top but cookie on bottom the old school ones had cookie on top that had different wrestlers on it and chocolate shell on bottom but these motherfuckers are fucking tasty. the one that lucky fans got in Chicago after the show ended looks tasty too. Just psyched that CM Punk is back straight up
I think people forget they're best friends
Punk, do they sell the cereal? LOL... no matter what, Punk still got that WWE mentality that you can't shake off. Can it sell?
Kofi was one of the most unbelievable, unconvincing champions of all time and it shows one of the problems with modern WWE. He basically won the title because he's been around a long time and has been a good hand and he's a nice guy. That's not how the business works. The belts are worth nothing when everyone wins them and is supposedly deserving of them just by default. It's like how they are presenting Belair as a contender and likely next champion because 'she is nice and works hard'. No shit - the vast majority of the roster are nice and work hard. I'm not saying she shouldn't be the contender because you have a handful of performers you could build to fill that role, but that's seriously the way they're going to do it? What's wrong with angling it that 'at this moment in time, she is the best women's wrestler in the world' or what have you? and if that isn't true, maybe they're not the right person.
Just look at the Attitude Era - From 1997 to 2001, name one person who was world champion who wasn't a legitimate top talent who deserved to win? Rock, HHH, Stone Cold, Mick Foley, Undertaker, Kane, Shawn Michaels, Brett Hart, Chris Jericho, Kurt Angle. All of them are amongst the biggest names in the history of the business. No one was thrown a bone. At most you might say they threw Foley the opportunity, but this is also Foley who was in one of the top 5, top 10, what have you, matches of all time in Hell in a Cell. Bona fide star.

I’m happy that Kofi got to win the wwe champion finally, but Punk is right, he should’ve won it 10 years ago, even as a kid, i was his biggest fan. The way he lost it was a big disgrace, but the west randy ruined kofi’s push over a stupid botch is even a bigger disgrace, hence why i never was a fan of randy orton in the beginning
It sucks that he isn't getting a push anymore.
