Kofi Kingston Talks Wanting To Turn Heel, Not Wrestling At Last Year's WrestleMania, More

Mike Chiari of The Bleacher Report recently spoke to Kofi Kingston, who was promoting WrestleMania XXX. Here are some highlights from the interview:

Turning heel:

"I've been clamoring at that for a while now, but the situation has to be right and the timing has to be right; everything has to be right. I wouldn't want to just do it for the sake of doing it because you might get lost in the shuffle that way. If the situation was right, it would give me a chance to do something completely different and show people a side of me they have never seen before, which I think would be great and I think would be fun."

Wanting a singles match at WrestleMania:

"I think at WrestleMania you definitely want a singles match and not have to share the spotlight with other guys. Money in the Bank was awesome and (created) some of the cooler moments in my career, and it's awesome to make some memorable moments. But I think the ultimate goal is to have that singles match where it's just you and your opponent, all eyes on you two, and you're just telling a story and you're out there just tearing the house down."

Being on the pre-show panel at last year's WrestleMania and not being on the card:

"Last year, it was the worst. It was the worst thing of all time. Well, not the worst thing, because doing the pre-show panel I was able to do something that I hadn't really done before. And on top of that, being there with Dusty Rhodes and Mick Foley was amazing because they're two legends and I'm sitting there in between them just like, 'Oh my God.' It was a cool experience."
