Kofi on the Rock

[Senhor Perfect]

WWE Superstar Kofi Kingston spoke with AZCentral.com this week to promote the Royal Rumble. The title of the article reads, "Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson mentors WWE's Kofi Kingston."

Kofi replied via Twitter:

"Ah, nothing like exaggeration in the media! Tell em that you received a piece of career advice, they print you're being mentored! As honored as I would be were that the case, i must say, regrettably, it's untrue!"

Here's what Kofi said in the article:

"I met him when he first came back last year. He's real cool. He had some advice for me, I had a chance to pick his brain a bit ... I spoke to him about certain things about the business, just general questions about how he got to where he was. Obviously you see a guy like The Rock, you see his success, you want to know exactly - from his mind and his mouth - how he got there, because I want to emulate that. If you don't want the success The Rock has had, then you probably shouldn't be in the WWE."

He speaks the truth.

Very nice for Kofi. I still think we're going to see him as midcard champ forever though, could be wrong. I'd like to see him as a main eventer.

He can get to the top by learning how to talk on the mic and give good promo, pretty obvious.

Though, I'm sure Kofi and Punk are friends in real life, that tag team thing was just for the storyline.

And how does he "keep sucking up to higher ups" if you only had one other example?

Kofi and Punk have friends since Punk started in the WWE. How is that sucking up?

Sucking up for a push is a lot more respectable than sucking off for one....
