WWE SummerSlam 2019: 3 possible title opponents for Kofi Kingston

Aleister Black

At Extreme Rules, Aleister Black took part in his first Pay-Per-View singles match on the main roster, and he passed his first test with flying colors.

Black vs. Cesaro had all the hype imaginable, as diehard wrestling fans were psyched at the prospect of two elite athletes and beloved in-ring competitors going hard at it. These two men certainly delivered, with Black showing why he became such a fan favorite in NXT.

Whether it was his barnburner with The Velveteen Dream or his great title matches with Andrade and Johnny Gargano, Black has put on classic after classic. He can steal the show, he can rule the main event, and he can even team up with a guy like Ricochet to put on great tag match after great tag match night-in and night-out. Remember THAT tag match to start NXT TakeOver: New York? Yeah, that was awesome.

Realistically, Black vs. Kingston probably isn’t happening, because WWE would likely choose a bigger name as Kingston’s opponent in a WWE Title match at SummerSlam. But we can dream, right? Just imagine how cool it would be to see these two guys duel it out for the title on the big stage? Kingston could definitely help Black get even more “over” with the main roster crowd.
