I wonder who that reminds me of?
Apples to Oranges. Morrison touched ME while Kofi has yet to do it. You have not proved your point.
Yeah I remembered that gimmick and how WWE dropped the ball with it.
WWE doesn't drop anything. The blow-off match ended on a RAW. That feud was for Kofi to show his aggresive side. There just wasn't a follow through on both his end as well as a lack of being put over in a decisive manner pertaining to the match layout (believe me, that has to be taken into consideration)
No it won't work cause he will probably get repackaged. That way he can start off fresh and better.
Fresh doesn't necessarily mean better. Like for example, Kofi being more aggresive in his feud with Orton. The problem being: the aggresiveness fizzled.
Yeah but he does have an aggresive side meaning he can use that like ala R-Truth and his crazyness.
Yes and where's Truth now? Working as a face on Superstars. Again, doing a turn doesn't necessarily mean it's going to be something for the
See that's the key word. He ain't. The only thing I see him to is now without Evan Bourne and that's job to ME guys.
What the hell are you babbling about, he's been tag teaming with Truth (that guy who didn't really work as a heel because of a halted push as that and a swerve) and he works the Tag Division.
See you are proving my point. He really can't get anything going good by being a face. If he went to a heel then it's something good for Kofi's career and the fans. Since, we have never seen what a heel Kofi can do. There endless possibilties with the heel turn.
Yet, you haven't given me one that seems bulletproof
Oh yeah what about Orton? He might have been a coward type but actually did something HUGE. So, Kofi can do something like that (see video again)
No, Orton wasn't the cowardly heel at the time/ He was the cowardly heel with IDD during HHH/Orton. At the time, he was accompanying Legacy, which was also being put over. Again, Kofi has a purpose as being a face. If he's a heel, he'll be another guy in the shuffle since he won't have that good a face to play off of.
He's pretty much an antithesis to Ziggler, Swagger, Epico and Primo. He has a purpose in the pecking order in the alignment he's at. CHanging him, especially in these dates, wouldn't help. If anything, now's the time to capitalize on his face-ness and boost him up during the Johnny ace era.
So, he pretty much needs someone to help him when being a face. Also, Vince always loves to experiment so what's stopping him from doing that with Kofi.
Vince experiments in the winter. It's been two weeks after Wrestlemania. If anything, Kofi's focus has to capitalize on the viewership NOW as opposed to wintertime. Doing a heel turn there will most likely add him to the lower card matches in Wrestlemania, like Ziggler and Swagger.
Well, have you seen his face promos. So, turning heel can help us see what else he might do. (See Cena, Orton, or HBK Heel's promos).
It will not be that much different. If you need work as a face when it comes to the microphone, you need work as a heel. Being a wrestler means you have to work BOTH equally as good, not just one and slight the other.
I got a better a idea. How about you give me a bullet proof idea were Kofi can become a top face ME guy.
Yeah, you're hso wrong on that one. Kofi isn't someone that's meant to break the glass ceiling. He's the reliable hand that helps out his peers and can be asked to put on good spots on a big pay-per-view. For that, he needs to stay a babyface. Being a babyface implies there's a reason that he's doing those spots because he puts caution to the wind.
That's being a babyface. But, if they want to test their waters and put him a bit higher in the pecking order, then let him work with Johnny on Smackdown. He could be the guy that stands up against Johnny Ace and his run as General Manager. Being on Smackdown implies more ringtime as opposed to RAW which is more focused on promos/recaps. Smackdown's a great place for Kofi, even more so if he works tag matches with someone else and has matches for the titles.
Stephanie McMahon once stated (paraphrased since the pdf was taken out) on her testimonial regarding Chris benoit that: "Ideally, you want everyone in the main event. That's where you need to have everyone so the show really stands out. But not everyone can be in the Main Event, which is why there's the mid card and the lower cards."
Kofi will not be a true, bona fine Main Event guy. But he'll be a damn fine Mid Card guy that can have a match in the Main Event or two. As a face, he's a perfect foil to most of the heels in the pecking order. Want proof: Look at the movesets.
You have not given me a solid idea about Kofi being a heel that will not consist of:
A manager that takes the heat for him and doesn't funnel it (Vicke and Johnny Ace all carry the heat for Ziggler, Swagger, Otunga, etc.), a gimmick that's believeable and slow cooked, as opposed to being swervealicious and finally, a a heel gimmick that has a perfect foil in someone that can be solid and is available to work (not Punk since he's tied up with Jericho, not Cena since he's tied up with Lesnar, not Rock since he's tied up with his stuff outside the 'E, not Seamus since he's tied up wit hADR, not Brodus and Santino since they're working with Swagger and Ziggler)
Wait...are those the top faces? WELL, WELL, WELL looks like someone needs to be a face in the 'E. Guess Kofi doesn't need the heel turn after all.
You've yet to give me a solid idea, a solid feud and a solid blow-off match. Way to go
