Kofi Kingston was screwed over by Vince McMahon on Smackdown Live this week. After defeating 5 opponents in a grueling gauntlet match, Kofi was forced to face Daniel Bryan.

Or, WWE could do something like if Kofi loses, the New Day is forced to split up as a faction. Could be an interesting way to go and it would make sense to involve all members of the New Day in the stakes here. Vince could accept the offer, saying that he always saw Big E as a
