"It has to be now... I've waited too long, I've worked too hard. This has to be it."

The narrative of this show got changed real quick...

Kofi Kingston has won everything in WWE. He's held the IC and US titles on multiple occasions and is a tag team champion more times than I care to count, setting the record for most days cumulative with the various tag team championships of WWE's recent history. However, his opportunities at the top prize, a world championship, have been few and far between. With the injury bug striking down Mustafa Ali, his spot for the WWE Championship Elimination Chamber match was open.

Cometh the man, cometh the hour.

Kofi entered Tuesday night's gauntlet (to determine the final entrant for the match) as the least fancied member of the field. By the end, he was maybe the favourite. He shockingly pinned WWE Champion Daniel Bryan in a long, enthralling encounter, got the best of Jeff Hardy and stunned Samoa Joe. He even stepped to AJ Styles after an hour of combat, telling the "Phenomenal One" that he'd waited 11 years, and that he was done waiting. While he ultimately tapped to Styles' Calf Crusher, Kingston had put everyone on notice. For the record, Orton stole the win and the final entrance spot with the RKO (outta nowhere(TM)).

So with all the chips on the table, can Kofi, after over a decade toiling away in the midcard and tag scenes, finally capture the big one, seize his place in history and become the heavyweight champion of this world? Only time will tell...
