#KOFIMANIA err K.O. Mania IV Presents WWE FASTLANE Official Thread 3.10.19

[Jmare007]

Dave Meltzer said that in spite of his performance on a recent episode of Smackdown and at Elimination Chamber, WWE is not considering Kofi Kingston for a WWE title shot against Daniel Bryan at Wrestlemania. Instead, they are looking at a possible returning superstar like Batista, John Cena, Bray Wyatt, Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, Kurt Angle or Undertaker for the event.

He said: “Kofi Kingston was not the plan as of this morning for either Fastlane or WrestleMania, and obviously things can change. So the WrestleMania story that I’ve heard was that it would be someone who is being brought back as opposed to somebody he’s been facing. The people on the list for discussion that could be brought back Bray Wyatt, Sami Zayn, Kevin Owens, Kurt Angle, Undertaker, John Cena, Batista — Kurt Angle has been in discussion for WrestleMania, I don’t think it’s going to be Kurt Angle though. There could be others but those are the names that I’m aware of that are available for discussion.”

Zayn is said to be ready to return to the ring. Batista, meanwhile, had no deal with WWE as of a week ago. As for Cena, WWE reportedly has other plans for him at the event so he’s not likely. The Undertaker is said to be a surprising name (according to Wrestling Inc) because he’s recently taken appearances and bookings outside of WWE, including Starrcast II. However, talks for a Wrestlemania match started again this past weekend.

Daniel Bryan’s challenger for Fastlane will be revealed tonight.

You late breh, he already updated that report and said Kofi is the "front runner" as the challenger for Fastlane

I never saw Lashley as the next inline for Lesnar? Just cause the internet worked themselves into a shoot doesn’t make it true. Bobby Lashley was never as over as kofi is now, why would anyone think he had next?

Lashley physically looks like the only formidable foe for Brock

I mean, when he came back and beat Roman it sure as hell looked like we’d get that match.. plus they both have MMA backgrounds

He better bring back his Jamaican accent.

I haven't read through the entire thread but I heard :meltzer: reported that now creative is thinking of putting Kofi vs. Bryan at Fast Lane. Big mistake if Kofi don't win...

You didnt watch Lashley in 07...he was getting Bobby chants and he was pushed hard at WM 23. Definitely was protected in the loss to Cena.

Im lie bruce prichard, fukk meltzer. people just believe him cause it gives them something to talk about. WWE knows yall are dying to know whats goiing to happen with Kofi so they probably feeding him a bunch of bullshyt to stir the pot

What does this have to do with Kofi?

 

[Rayzah]

I can see them thinking they giving the fans what they want by having kofi fight him again at fastlane, but then you know he would just lose and then they would try to fast track some manufatured beef with one of those guys mentioned in time for mania. thats such a consolation prize, only way that works is if its a fukkery finish which kofi wins by dq and they set up the rubber match at mania or add him into a multi man match

Bryan should have fastlane off and kofi should be competing in a no 1 contenders match against whoever they were thinking before Ali got hurt
but since the universal title wont be on the show I guess they need atleast one major championship defended

 

[Mob H]

Kofi makes too much sense and the hype behind it fell in their lap so of course they won't do it. WWE takes special care to squander any interest that just falls out of the sky for them.

Here's my prediction for Fast Lane

 

[Dat916nigga]

Haitch took 23 seconds to cover Book

And he only used one arm to cover

WOAT finish

 

[Peter Popoff]

He's black, let's stop hyping up the delusions of Vincent KKKennedy MkkkMahon. We already know how this always ends.
