Speculation On How Kofi Kingston Will Earn A WWE Championship Match At Wrestlemania 35

It seems pretty clear to me that we are getting Kofi Kingston vs Daniel Bryan at Wrestlemania 35 for the WWE Championship. The big question still is, how do we get there?

Vince McMahon trolled Kofi (and WWE fans) at Fastlane. They are clearly stacking the deck against Kofi and building him up as a really strong underdog/ babyface heading into Wrestlemania 35. I am really digging this storyline and have to give WWE credit here.

Now that Fastlane is done, we need to start looking at how Kofi will earn his way into the WWE Title match at Wrestlemania.

My guess is that we will be getting a triple threat match on an upcoming episode of Smackdown. That will be Kevin Owens vs Mustafa Ali vs Kofi Kingston. The winner gets to face Daniel Bryan at Wrestlemania 35.

This match would make sense because Kofi was replaced by Owens in the match at Fastlane. Kofi also replaced Mustafa at the Elimination Chamber due to injury. From a storyline standpoint, it would make sense to have these three face off to see who gets to face Bryan.

If this match happens, I expect Kofi to defeat both Mustafa and Owens. Kofi picks up the win and proves to Vince that he is worthy of fighting for the WWE Title.

That is how I see WWE determining Bryan’s opponent at Wrestlemania. Would make for a pretty solid triple threat match for an episode of Smackdown.
