Bio

Hailing from Ghana, West Africa, Kofi Kingston brings unique in-ring abilities and style to WWE.

With a love for life and the WWE Universe, Kingston brings an exciting personality to the ring week in and week out.

Considering that the talented Superstar’s high-flying, high-impact offense delights the WWE Universe in attendance, as well as at home, Kingston has become a fan favorite—and a nightmare to the opponents he faces.

Boasting reigns as Intercontinental Champion, World Tag Team Champion, and United States Champion, this young Superstar’s future continues getting brighter, giving Kofi and the fans at home a lot to look forward to every time he enters the arena.

Breakdown

Kofi Kingston is another fast and agile Superstar with the Comeback ability. He’s not going to blow anybody away with his power, but his Strike Defense is good at 85 and his Trouble in Paradise kick Finisher is awesome on an Irish Whip rebound.

Both his Adrenaline and Speed attributes are 95, so use this to your advantage with Springboard Dives for a super-fast slingshot attack to your opponent. Stay away from the damage of big grapplers and submission artists, as Kofi’s Grapple Defense is 75 and Durability is 70.
