Kofi Kingston Praises Adrian Neville, Talks New Stable, His Favorite Match

WWE Superstar Kofi Kingston continues to be one of the more exciting wrestlers to watch in the ring, and has now extended his own excitement over another upcoming NXT Superstar.

In an interview with The Independent, Kingston heavily praised NXT Champion Adrian Neville:

“Some of the things he does are just incredible, he calls himself the man that gravity forgot, and he just defies gravity with everything he does. For me, as a fan, I think he’s going to be one of the greatest of all time when he gets it all going. As a performer I would love to get in there with him and mix it up, I think our styles would mesh well and produce a great match for the people watching.”

Kingston also talked on his upcoming stable with Big E and Xavier Woods:

“I’m always trying to climb the ladder, and right now myself, Big E and Xavier Woods are trying to get a team off the ground. We have been having a lot of matches on live events, and we are trying to get something going. If ,and when it does take off, it should be very entertaining, and something people can get behind. As of now, we’re just three smart athletic friends hanging out and having a good time.”

He also noted how the WWE Network allows people to relive some of his favorite moments, including what he thinks may be his favorite match in WWE:

“One of the matches that is pretty dear to my heart is when I took on Chris Jericho at Night of Champions in 2008. It was the first time that I won the Intercontinental championship, in fact it was the first title I had ever won, not just in WWE,  but on the independent scene as well.”

Interestingly enough, Neville and Kingston share a lot of accolades. Hopefully Neville can surpass the success of Kingston and become that mega-star.
