It helps that his opponent list is constantly refreshed. Unlike Seth, AJ, etc. ... Kofi doesn't spend a ton of time with the same challenger. He gets a different challenger, different stories and character motivations, and it keeps the run fresh and unique.

With Seth, they IMMEDIATELY shot their load with a Summerslam/Mania-level feud with AJ Styles and since then, it was Baron Corbin for three straight events, lost belt, regained it.

AJ got Nakamura like 4-5 times, Samoa Joe like 3-4 times...

Theyve turned the universal title to the main belt and kofis belt secondary as far as attention and main events go
Vince trying to do it on the low
:mjpls:
Whatever title is on Raw is what usually ends up being the main title. It was like that during the initial brand split.

I LIVE IN A CARDBOARD BOX!
With Brock no longer getting a rematch on RAW and Smackdown about to start on FOX, I see only one outcome for Kofi:

Kofi is probably the most likeable babyface champ since Daniel Bryan. When Seth, Dean and everyone else had their runs, they were usually cocky a$$holes or goofy shmucks. Kofi actually comes off as authentic and wrestles like a face as well.
