Kofi Kingston ~ SL Notability

The energy contained within one Kofi Kingston could power a major city for several years.

A Ghanaian grappler with a beaming smile, Kingston’s boundless enthusiasm is only rivaled by his limitless athleticism, which he displays fearlessly every time he steps in the ring to the delight of the entire WWE Universe. In fact, the only people who don’t like Kofi Kingston are the Superstars he faces each week – and that’s only because they can rarely catch him.

The leader of the Boom Squad’s dazzling aerials only belie what is actually a truly fierce fighter, who can curtail the smiles to kick it up in intensity if an opponent is foolish enough to set him off.

Randy Orton, for example, tested Kofi’s patience in late 2009, and paid for it when Kofi defaced The Viper’s customized NASCAR before targeting Orton himself, leaping off of a balcony at Madison Square Garden and splintering him through a table. Kofi’s determination makes him a legitimate threat, and repeated favorite, in the annual Money in the Bank Ladder Matches, even though he’s yet to snag the coveted briefcase amid his rampant boom-dropping.

Boasting reigns as Intercontinental Champion and United States Title holder, in summer 2011, Kofi became one-half of the WWE Tag Team Champions alongside Evan Bourne in the tandem known as “Air Boom.” WWE’s dynamic duo excites the world with a tandem offense reminiscent of The Rockers and The British Bulldogs.

With the capacity to succeed on singles and tag team levels, this young Superstar's future continues to get brighter, probably because he actually keeps leaping closer and closer to the sun.
