Kofi Kingston was the big guest on today’s edition of The Bump. Before his WrestleMania 35 storyline and history-making 2019 WWE title run, Kingston’s claim to fame was his remarkable Royal Rumble saves. Makes sense that Kofi would announce he’s in this weekend’s match in Houston.
And he’s bringing his meat slappin’ pal Big E with him!
That brings the total number of entrants for the men’s match to 24 (or 25, depending on where R-Truth stands):
Brock Lesnar, Roman Reigns, King Corbin, Dolph Ziggler, Shinsuke Nakamura, Braun Strowman, Kofi Kingston, Big E, Erick Rowan, AJ Styles, Randy Orton, Elias, Rey Mysterio, Ricochet, Drew McIntyre, Otis, Tucker, Rusev, Bobby Lashley, Aleister Black, Buddy Murphy, Seth Rollins, Kevin Owens, and Samoa Joe.
Don’t worry. The Bump didn’t forget about the other Rumble taking place in Minute Maid Park on Jan. 26.
