From the fumbling ring … to Wakanda?!?
WWE super star Kofi Kingston states he’s hoping he can do simply that … informing TMZ Sports today he’s definitely itching to be in the upcoming “Black Panther” television series.
“I already fit the mold,” he stated out LAX. “I was born in the Mother Land, you know what I’m saying? Put your boy on the show!”
The comics, superhero discussion all happened because throughout a match previously this month, Kofi highlighted a Thor hammer and wowed the crowd with it.
The 14-time WWE tag group champ revealed it off — and after that beat the hell out of his challenger with it … drawing substantial cheers from the audience.
The scene was amazing — and Kofi stated he’s frantically attempting to duplicate it on a Marvel task moving forward.
“Look, man, there’s a lot of us that are Marvel fans,” Kofi stated, “myself, Woods and E, your boys — The New Day — would love to be in a Marvel movie.”
“We put things out into the universe and then we pray for the most positive. It’s all about putting yourself out there.”
The brand-new Wakanda series apparently started advancement in 2015 — and it’s uncertain if there’s still time for a function for Kofi. But, if there is — he’s all ears, Marvel!
