Kofi Kingston, a native of Ghana and a graduate of Boston College, came into WWE with one goal in mind: to become WWE Champion. Kofi along with Xavier Woods and Big E formed one of the most magical and entertaining factions in WWE history: The New Day. The New Day are 11-time Tag Team Champions and at one time held the record for longest male tag team championship reign in WWE history at 483 days. Kofi is also a four-time Intercontinental Champion and a three-time Unites States Champion. In the spring of 2019, KofiMania caught fire and culminated with Kofi defeating Daniel Bryan at WrestleMania 35 for the WWE Championship. Kofi showed the world that dreams do come true. Kofi’s positivity and freakish athletic talent combined with his relentless work ethic make him a true role model and inspiration to all.
