Kofi Kingston On Bray Wyatt Vs. The Undertaker, Sting Vs. Triple H, Favorite WrestleMania Memories

- Kofi Kingston recently spoke with XXL Magazine to promote WWE's WrestleMania 31. Below are some highlights:

What are your three favorite WrestleMania moments of all time?

Well, selfishly, I was gonna make all of them include myself, but I'll only do that for two of them. My favorite one was my first Money In The Bank match. I believe it was in 2009. It was the first time I got to be on Wrestlemania. And you know, ever since I was a kid, I always wanted to be a WWE superstar. So I always pictured myself in Wrestlemania matches. So when that happened it was like a dream come true, literally. So that's probably my top favorite moment.

My second favorite moment is when Shawn Michaels faced the Undertaker. That to me was awesome. I got to watch it from the crowd. It was just an amazing match. Shawn Michaels is one of my favorite competitors of all time. And just to see him in there with Undertaker, them going back and forth, like from their entrances all the way to the end... And again, I got to be out in the crowd to watch that, which I normally don't get to do.

And my third favorite Wrestlemania moment would probably be the Money In The Bank I was in. I believe it was my second. I'm terrible with years so it was either 2010 or 2011. But I got to walk on stilts. Basically, Kane had split a ladder in half and I got to use those two parts of the ladder to kind of walk myself to the middle of the ring and climb up, which was a pretty cool moment.

Who do you think is going to win the match between Undertaker and Bray Wyatt?

It'll be really interesting. If you would have asked me like a year ago I would have said Undertaker because he had never lost at Wrestlemania. But then he lost to Brock Lesnar. So it's like when Rocky made the Russian bleed. Mick comes out of the corner and he's like, "He's just a man. He's human." So now I feel like Undertaker is beatable, ya know? Because it has been done. So if anyone can do it again, it might be Bray. Either way it's gonna be an interesting match with two really cool characters squaring up against each other. It's kinda like a fantasy booking situation where you're like, "What would happen if Bray Wyatt faced the Undertaker?" And we're all gonna find out at Wrestlemania.

Who do you think will win that Sting/Triple H match?

Yeah, man. You know who the real winners are? The fans who get to see it. Because I know a lot of people, myself included, who never expected to see Sting in a WWE ring, and now it is happening. It's Triple H in there with him, too. So any time Triple H has a match at Wrestlemania, it's always an awesome match. Now you get to see these guys go up against each other. I'm pulling for Sting. I was always a big Sting fan with the colorful rainbow face paint and also with the Crow-like, black and white stuff. So I'm pulling for Sting, but we'll see.
