Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods have become the most hated duo after kicking Big E out of The New Day on the December 2 episode of RAW. Since then, they have fully embraced their heel side. However, Kingston is still facing criticism from fans, and he recently called out a fan who body-shamed him.
Kingston recently took to Twitter and pointed out to many fans that they simply lack the same determination and fighting spirit that he has, saying, “See, the problem with most of you folks out there is… Y’all ain’t got that dawg in you…” This led to a fan body shaming Kofi Kingston, as they stated that their chest is still intact, unlike Kingston, saying, “I have my whole chest in tact… Lol.”
Kofi Kingston clapped back at the fan as he questioned why someone would brag about having an intact chest, comparing it to making fun of an amputee for having all their limbs and quickly shut down the hater, saying, “Would you brag to an amputee and ‘lol’ about having your limbs? So why would you make this comment to me about my chest? Cho ho ass up.”
Kofi Kingston does not have pectus excavatum, a condition where the chest appears sunken. Instead, his sternum is not concave, and his pectoral muscles attach closer to the sides of his sternum rather than the center. Mocking Kingston for this is inappropriate, and many fans agree that Kingston was right to shut down the body-shamer.
