WWE Smackdown: How did Sir Kofi Kingston get injured?
In the main event of Friday Night Smackdown last week, King Woods defeated Jimmy Uso in a one-on-one bout. According to the stipulation of the match, Jimmy had to bend his knee before King Woods to show his respect towards the King.
Just when Jimmy was about to bend his knee, Roman Reigns came into the ring out of nowhere and hit the King with a Superman punch. He then aligned himself with his Bloodline brothers and started annihilating Kofi and Woods mercilessly.
