Kofi Kingston: I Find Out What I'm Doing On WWE Raw Through Social Media
Kingston is told his WWE matches by Twitter
Sep 15, 2021
Kofi Kingston has revealed he has found out what he was doing on WWE Monday Night Raw in the last two weeks thanks to the matches been advertised on social media.
Kingston and Xavier Woods have competed in multi-man tag-team bouts on the red brand in the last couple of weeks, taking part in an eight-man tag on Monday 13 Raw after a Tag Team Turmoil on Monday 6.
The former WWE Champion says that the performers are usually the last to be told the plans for each broadcast and, if he didn't look at his social media feed, he would have no idea what he was scheduled to do on Raw.
Speaking on 106 KMEL, when asked when WWE wrestlers find out what they're doing at shows, Kingston said: "You would be surprised. Usually, as performers, we are the last ones to find things out.
"This week and last week, I found out on Twitter what I was doing on Raw. It was announced I would be in an eight-man tag team match and I was like, 'Oh, good to know. I gotta prepare.' Same thing last week when we had the tag team turmoil, I had no idea until I looked on social media and I saw it.
"If I didn't look on social media, I wouldn't have known until I got to the building. Oftentimes, we have no idea what the show is going to entail or what we're supposed to be doing. Even sometimes when we do know, it always changes.
"That's the bittersweet part of being a WWE superstar. If you're somebody who needs to know exactly what is happening, when it's happening, and step for step, you're going to be real upset working here because everything changes. I think it's a good thing, keeps everyone on their toes."
