I can't believe Kevin Flair is just being handed his rightfully-earned title shot against Daniel Rousey.
Man, I can't think of any other storyline like this right now. This is so fresh.

At least Owens is still a face, at the end of the match he was saying to Kofi "I'll become champion and then I'll face you, that's my plan", so he's advocating for Kofi too.

I'm legit screaming at the title being Kofi Lynch. You wild lmao.
Thankfully most of us know where this is headed and we know Kofi's getting that title at WM. I'm just surprised they used the same damn storyline lmao. That's just laziness.

Kevin was probably "promised" the title match vs Bryan so I imagine they are trying to book around not breaking the promise to Kevin while putting Kofi in the program so it makes them awkward.

Thank you for including the got screwed part in the title. Otherwise, this thread would have been a whopper to moderate.

I mean, I'm glad this more than likely means he's getting the Wrestlemania match and winning there but doing the same exact story is sooo lazy.
Another dumb aspect of this is Vince hasn't ever had any interaction with Kofi or Becky so this feels even lazier. Also for a company that does so much on screen stuff with the McMahon's because of how they want them to be perceived IRL (them not wanting Stephanie arrested on TV etc.) I don't get why they want to make the owner of the company screw over fan favorites for no reason lol.

The WWE is just embracing Daniel Bryan's non-consumerist, sustainable, efficiency-driven rhetoric. Now they need to employ half the amount of writers, and print only half the amount of promo scripts. Just tell the wrestlers to cross out whichever name isn't applicable.

lol, it wouldn't have been that bad of a sotryline if it wasn't a blatant copy/paste. Problem is the Becky/Charlotte/Ronda story has been brewing for months and this whole Kofi/Kevin scenario probably would never have even happened if Mustafa Ali didn't get injured two weeks ago.

I think they might be running with the angle of Vince being out of touch.
Commentary was kind of going there at times.

It's so creatively bankrupt but I will squeal Bobby Hill style if Kofi actually wins the WWE title at WM35.

Kofi's been one of my favorites since I got back into watching wrestling in 2011 so I'm super excited about the possibility of him winning the belt.

Man, Kofi chasing the title after 11 years practically wrote itself but of course they’ll rehash this angle twice at the same time.
Legit surprised they are going with Kofi for the title at Mania. Time for Bryan to break out the HHH 2003 promo. HHH was practically describing the New Day in that promo anyway so as long as the racist loses in the end this time it would at least make sense.
