Where Is Kofi?

Where has Kofi Kingston been since losing the Intercontinental Championship to Wade Barrett? I had a feeling he would get lost in the shuffle. He is currently not involved in any title feuds. While we're at it, he's currently not involved in really anything. He is being used to put over others. He did get his moment at the Royal Rumble.

At the time I last talked about Kofi, I was expecting Elimination Chamber to feature a multi-man match for the WWE Championship, or at least #1 contendership for that title. Neither of those are options now. If it still was, I figured Kofi would be involved in that. He usually is. The multi-man match for Raw looks like it will involve The Shield, John Cena, Ryback, and Sheamus. Kofi doesn't fit in there.

Wrestlemania might be even tougher to find a spot for Kofi. No Money in the Bank there. Can they make up some large tag match? Maybe something involving whatever is left of The Shield after Cena has his way with them? Kofi can get involved in that. If not, he'll probably get involved in some pre-show battle royal. I don't see the road to Wrestlemania featuring Kofi prominently.

What should the WWE try to do with Kofi now? Honestly, I think they have a good reason to not be pushing Kofi Kingston well right now. It's tough this time of year. Moreover, the WWE has a right to also feature some of these other guys. Kofi Kingston is a good worker and is over, but he is not at the level of a Chris Jericho or CM Punk. You could try forcing him into a feud with Cesaro for the U.S. title, but it is not really necessary. You would just be trying too hard. Kofi has worth outside of these title feuds. Hopefully, they start using him better after Wrestlemania. Right now, no tears needed for Kofi. He's not being punished.
