@WrestleVotes on Twitter noted that Kofi Kingston staying in the ring for close to an hour during the gauntlet was a story originally planned for Mustafa Ali. Kingston has also earned himself a renewed momentum backstage.

Hearing that the Kofi - Gauntlet story, with him being in the ring nearly an hour was the same story that was to unfold with Mustafa Ali.

However, given circumstances, an opportunity has now opened for Kofi, and he has momentum. Both w/ fans & backstage after his performance.
