WWE Champion Kofi Kingston In Ring
A video package reminds us of the feud so far. Kofi says he was just trying to prove he belonged in this spot as WWE Champion, but Randy Orton made it personal when he brought Kofi’s family into this. Randy appears on screen calling Kofi stupid and then reads a letter that is supposedly from Kofi’s son. Kofi runs to the back and is attacked by Orton. The two men fight but Orton gains the advantage and hits his DDT on Kofi from a production table. Orton leaves Kofi on the ground, calling him stupid.
The animosity between #WWEChampion @TrueKofi and @RandyOrton just reached an INCREDIBLY personal level. #SDLive pic.twitter.com/b3do1wfTbl
