Même s’il a perdu son titre mondial en à peine quelques secondes contre Brock Lesnar vendredi, à Friday Night Smackdown, Kofi Kingston continue de susciter l’admiration auprès de ses collègues.
Plusieurs lutteurs ont tenu à le féliciter pour son règne de champion, son talent et sa passion pour son métier.
Kingston a exprimé par la suite sa joie de recevoir tant d’éloges. Il a rappelé qu’être champion du monde fut la réalisation d’un rêve de jeunesse.
“Once again, I’m so overwhelmed by the outpouring of love I’ve seen on here over the last 24 hours. As a WWE Superstar, one always hopes to experience moments in this industry that have a real and positive impact on people’s lives. Judging by all of these messages, I’d say that mission’s been accomplished.
And again, without all of you and your support, none of this happens, so thank you all for letting me live out my childhood dream to the fullest. I am forever indebted to you.
I’m not sure what comes next, but I will always be so proud and honored to have been your champion… “
#ThankYouKofi for giving me one my favorite career moments. Sad to see his reign end the way it did. I lost my first WHC in 18 seconds, and came away more determined (and angry!) because of it. I’m sure @TrueKofi will do the same. Respect… Always. BUT #StillMadYouBeatMe

In my opinion @TrueKofi created the greatest Wrestlemania moment of all time. Tonight his title reign was ended by a man who cares nothing for other people, he is wreckless, and he disgust me.
Now begins the hustle to bring that WWE heavyweight championship back to the New Day.

I'll elaborate on the wording of my prior Tweet..@TrueKofi is the best of us. He is the prime example of a dude with a contagious work ethic and energy. In a world filled with people constantly trying to bring you down.. he's "one of the good ones" that actually raise you up.
