After his incredible performance last week on SmackDown and this past Sunday at Elimination Chamber, fans have been hoping Kofi Kingston would become the WWE World Championship challenger against Daniel Bryan at either Fastlane or WrestleMania. Unfortunately both looked unlikely, until now.
Dave Meltzer of The Wrestling Observer is reporting that Kingston is now a front-runner for Bryan’s opponent at Fastlane. There were specific plans for both Fastlane and WrestleMania as of Monday morning, but the large fan reaction Kofi’s been getting has swayed officials towards giving him the Fastlane match.
There’s no word on if this will impact plans going into WrestleMania, where currently the plan is for Daniel Bryan to face someone making a return.
