Agreed. I'm one of the few fans of Kofi on here, and he's hella' talented. He would benefit from a cruiserweight division tbh.
Or a properly built midcard, a cruiserweight division isn't the solution logical booking is.

The cruiserweight division is never coming back. One big reason is because small-sized guys like Rey Mysterio and Daniel Bryan and Evan Bourne and others (Kofi too, if you wanna throw him in that division) have proven they can win bigger and more important championships like the world titles, midcard titles and tag team titles, so there's no point in settling for a title only built for people of a specific weight division.

Kofi can do well just being in the kind of role Christian was in for the longest time (especially around 2002-2005 before he left), which is winning one of the midcard titles to make sure it still means something every once and awhile, and making someone else look good in the ring and eventually jobbing to them.

NGL, can't wait to see some of D'Z's fueds with the new guys.

Honestly don't see what's so great about the guy to be honest. I don't mind him as a midcarder, but he's just so average in every way. His strong point is meant to be his ring work, but I honestly don't think I've ever seen a Kofi match that was better than decent. (Apart from Kofi and Evan vs D'Z and Swagger @ Vengeance '11, that was really fun)

They should give him a heel run to see how it goes. But if they do so, do it right, otherwise he won't be able to do much anyway.

You think Kane is capable of being taken seriously as a badass in 2013? It was cool when he popped up in 1998 but nobody can stay interested in a masked goon for that long.

Kofi, R-Truth, The Big Show, Brodus Clay, Natalya...
Hopefully Christian comes back recharged, Daniel Bryan & Kane break up and out from each other, Natalya starts wrestling for the Diva's belt instead of being arm candy, Kofi turns heal, R-Truth turns heel, Brodus loses the dancers, of whom can wrestle and should be going after the Divas title themselves... I can go on and on.
With Wrestle Mania just passing, I expect there to be at least a handful of changes going on, hopefully for the better.

Not with the way he's been booked throughout the years but that's the sad part. At this point, I feel he could tag team with Santino and do comedy segments with him and he wouldn't even look out of place. At least he still shows a slight bit of seriousness here and there, like when Punk stole Paul Bearer's urn (and hopefully tonight when he teams with Undertaker.)
