WWE: Kofi Kingston successfully defends his Inter Continental Title against Dolph Ziggler
Many call him the future World Heavy Weight or future WWE champion. This young wrestler from Ghana, West Africa has impressed many in the professional wrestling world. It is the Inter Continental champion, Kofi Kingston who has been reigning supreme on the Smack Down roster for the past many weeks. Kofi Kingston decimated the Scottish born wrestling superstar, Drew McIntyre few weeks ago and won the prestigious Inter Continental title. Kofi Kingston faced another challenge last Friday as he successfully defended the Inter Continental gold against the infamous Dolph Ziggler.
Dolph Ziggler is an arrogant wrestler and is the boyfriend of Vickie Guerrero. Vickie Guerrero is the official consultant to the Smack Down General Manager, Teddy Long. The partnership of Vickie Guerrero and Dolph Ziggler has resulted in one the most infamous and deeply hated groups on Smack Down. Dolph Ziggler and Vickie Guerrero manipulated the events together and scheduled a match in which Dolph received a title shot against Kofi Kingston.
The crowd was heavily on the side of Kofi Kingston, who walked in the ring with his golden Inter Continental belt. It was Boom Boom time as wrestling fans from all age groups cheered for the African wrestling superstar. Cheers turned into boos as Dolph Ziggler walked towards the ring with Vickie Guerrero on his side. Fans knew that Dolph Ziggler will employ every trick and fighting tactic in his arsenal to win the title. Dolph Ziggler was also looking to impress the General Manager of Smack Down, Teddy Long so that he could qualify for the Money in the Bank Ladder Match at the upcoming Pay per View.
The match started as Dolph Ziggler went right on the attack by kicking the abdomen of Kofi Kingston. Dolph Ziggler then cornered Kofi Kingston and started using the body of the Inter Continental Champion as a punching bag. Kofi Kingston fought back by tossing Dolph Ziggler high in the air and then slamming him on the ring floor. Both wrestlers were desperately trying to dominate each other. A crucial moment came in the match when Dolph Ziggler went for the cover over Kofi Kingston in the hope for a win. Kofi Kingston mustered all his strength and kicked out before the referee could count to three.
Dolph Ziggler became over confident in the match and started looking at Vickie Guerrero. He did not know that a surprise will be waiting for him when he will turn back in the ring. Dolph Ziggler planned to execute his wrestling finisher called the “Zig Zag” and turned back to Kofi Kingston. Kofi Kingston quickly ducked to avoid the finisher, as he knew that one mistake could strip him from his prestigious Inter Continental title.
Then out of nowhere, Kofi Kingston rolled in the air and executed his famous wrestling finisher called the “Trouble in Paradise”. In this wrestling move, Kofi Kingston rolls in the ring and delivers a heavy kick to the jaw of his opponent. Dolph Ziggler was completely caught off guard as he received the kick to his jaw. Kofi Kingston quickly went for the cover and the referee counted to three with both shoulders of Dolph Ziggler touching the ring floor. Vickie Guerrero lost her confidence in Dolph Ziggler, as she went back for the locker room.
Apparently this loss marks the end of Dolph Ziggler but many believe that this arrogant wrestling superstar will bounce back to create a huge impact in professional wrestling. The win has also given a huge boost to the Inter Continental champion, Kofi Kingston as he gears up to fight in the upcoming Pay per View called the Money in the Bank. It will be huge news in the world of professional wrestling if Kofi Kingston wins the Inter Continental title belt and the World Heavy Weight title belt at the same time.
