He should've turned heel during the Miz feud. So he can become a bigger fan favorite by kicking Miz in the face? Because if he's going to turn heel, let it be against someone the crowd will react with rage over the turn instead of cheering him on. If Kofi were to beat down Miz, he can get heel heat if he "goes too far" with it. Kofi just needs to be clearly presented as being in the wrong. No more trash talking or anything on Miz's part that would make Kofi's actions seem justified

I doubt Kofi unleashing un-control frenzy on him is going to achieved the desired effect.

There was like once or twice Kofi SNAPPED and got DQ'd, but then went right back to being fun lovable Kofi again by the next show.

Maybe Vince thinks he's Shelton. He's had the exact same booking, sans Mama, the former had. SOS, I AIN'T SHELTON!

Kofi doesn't have the "This is awesome" factor that Orton, Lesnar, or Cesaro have, which would actually make him a great heel.

... Oklahoma's not in America? well you see. Oklahoma just snuck <makes walking motions with my fingers> across the border from Mexico into our great nation and illegally cheated their way into statehood. they're not part of Zebb Coulter's America and now any if REAL americans would like to take the pledge with us, please stand up, place your hand over your heart and in a loud clear voice say along with us. "WE! THE PEOPLE!" I purposely signed in to like this. XD

I wonder how Kofi is viewed backstage. From what I've heard he's liked. Big Show did a shoot interview about a year ago and in it he said Kofi's right on the edge of moving up to main eventing. He said he's ready. He said the same about Dolph and Wade too. These 3 are the "future established Edge/Bret/Shawn" like stars the WWE has in their ranks. What I mean by that is they're the stars that we've seen grow and when their time comes they'll move up. They're not sudden movers like Sheamus for example. They'll have earned their spot.
Which brings us to Kofi. I mean I don't get it. He can always get a good match out of someone. The fans can connect with him but what we haven't seen is a heel Kofi. We need to see a heel Kofi and have him go out there and kick ass. He can cut a decent promo, he doesn't need to talk much just let him beat down his opponents with his skillz and boom he's good to go. Hell, remember this from last year?
Kofi's run was cut short by Ambrose after 1 month of holding the title. The WWE is too fickle with him. I swear, they say he needs 1 final chance to break through but the fact is they're not giving him the chance. He's bffs with Punk, he's good in the eyes of the company, he's an all-around talent, he never gets in trouble, I mean what else do you need? Give the man a chance.
I'm so sick of the guy not being used right.

Seriously just turn him heel and he'll be pushed to ADR level.

Well... Kofi's changed his attire a lot.
Man, they missed a great opportunity back in late 2009.

I just want Kofi to join the Real Americans. And everyone's really confused about how it happened but enthusiastic. I like the idea that in the Real Americans Zeb is the only Real American. ... Oklahoma's not in America? Kick Swagger out.

I honestly believe his 'dance' with sometimes-heel/sometimes-face Miz is what will get Kofi to finally snap and turn heel. He definitely should at least get ONE Titantron and music theme change to a non-Jamaican gimmick I'd hope.
He should join up with Leo Krugar and do a neo-African gimmick, consisting of having Justin Gabriel job nonstop to them on a nightly basis for 'selling out' and dumping JoJo publicly on Total Divas, oh yeah btw she's the Neo Africaans' sexy dark-skinned valet.
Bam, just gave 4 under-utilized talents a chance and a new gimmick to breakout with, its really not that difficult WWE Creative. Hell here's another freebie, Krugar can use this line to end his insane promos: "because we Afri-CAAAN!" Eh who am I kidding the crowd will just do the 'hoo hoo hoo' choo-choo train thing he does on NXT for the stable anywys

Kofi doesn't have the "This is awesome" factor that Orton, Lesnar, or Cesaro have, which would actually make him a great heel. People have had no issue booing Orton and showering Bryan with support during their feud. I think the common factor here is that Miz isn't exactly the most sympathetic face. Kofi would have better luck turning heel on Ziggler.
