Ghanaian wrestler for WWE. A mainstay of the midcard and tag team scene since 2008 but gained his greatest success after teaming up with Big E and Xavier Woods to form The New Day. Since joining The New Day, Kingston has won 13 tag titles and his only WWE Championship.
Though already a regular on WWE's Mexican house shows, Kingston made his proper lucha libre debut at AAA x WWE: Worlds Collide Las Vegas on September 12, 2025, teaming up with the New Day's ally Grayson Waller (who was filling in for the "injured" Woods), unsuccessfully challenging Pagano and Psycho Clown for the AAA World Tag Team Championship.
