Seriously, I know most people here thought he was talented, but in that one segment tonight he showed what it takes to be a star. This feud with Orton could be what that Punk/Orton feud was originally supposed to be.
Kofi looked legit tonight though, 100%. Star power there.

I'd kill for a gif of him throwing down on that car.

Ya now that he lost the over exaggerated accent and has taken a bit more serious tone I think he could be in the World Title picture in no time. The segment tonight was fantastic.

That promo was terrific. They gave him the ball, and he didnt fumble it one bit.

I've been on the JohnsonKingston bandwagon since day one, and honestly, I think he has it all now. He's over, he's got a wrestling style that keeps you interested in the match, he's got mic skills and he's got charisma.
He could really be something if THEY don't stuff him up.

This is how you get young stars over: you put them in situations that allow people to see what they can really do. Kofi took it to another level tonight.

I'm so glad the silly Jamaican accent is gone. That finally means he can be taken seriously.

That picture of him with half of his body splattered with paint standing on a car is an awesome visual. I think he's got what it takes and this Orton feud should really do him some favours.

I was never that big on Kofi before, while he was athletic and talented, he just never clicked for me.
What happened tonight, as well as removing the fake Jamaican accent, changed all of that.

Yeah yeah, Kyle Busch almost called Kofi Kingston "Kofi Johnson", but quickly caught himself. I'm sick of this joke already. Sorry about that. More Undertaker vs. Big Show has left me angsty. In all seriousness, I snickered a bit but it quickly passed. But back on topic, I am glad Kofi's moving up in the world. Although that car promo gave me crazy vibes.  |

Was really happy to see that. I hope Orton doesn't destroy him and I'd love to see him become one of the next top performers in WWE, especially on the freshness-starved Raw.

Let's not forget that earlier in the night, the man defeated multi-time World Champion, IC Champion, & Tag Champion Chris Jericho.
It was a career night for the Jamaican Ghanation Sensation!

Pretty big night for Kofi, starts with a clean win over Jericho and moves right into a fued with Orton. And I, too, am in the "glad he lost the accent" camp.

This for me. He beat Chris Jericho in what was (personal opinion) Kofis best match so far in his young career. I was expecting him to compete but fall in the end. Tonight was a coming out party for Kofi Kingston. |

This, I've been a big Kofi fan and thought he had it all before this. Though I will say the dropping of the accent REALLY helped him. |

I've always been a fan of Kofi, but wasn't sure if he would ever be able to make it into the main event picture.
After tonight, I can easily see him headlining shows.

They made him look really good tonight, I just hope they don't pull an MVP and forget about all of this next week.
