[[caption-width-right:350:Or how to survive a ''Wrestling/RoyalRumble'' elimination.]]
* First and foremost, anything related to Funny/TheNewDay.
* When he was trying to rally the divided team Raw against Smackdown and Triple H cut him short to complain about his lack of accent.
* Kofi's reputation as the hardest man to eliminate during the Royal Rumble match, where something awesome always happens to prevent his elimination.
** 2012: Evaded elimination via a ''handstand''. He even won a slammy award for it!
** 2013: Used JBL's announcer's chair to ''bunny hop'' back to the ring.
** 2014: Landed on Rusev, climbed on the barricade, and somehow managed to jump and land on the ''ring apron'' by the tip of his toes.
** 2015: Was thrown out of the ring, only for some Rosebuds to catch him and help him back in.
** 2016: Same as before but this time caught by Big E and was carried on E's shoulder around to the point where he managed to eat some popcorn during the match before he went back in!
** 2017: He grapped onto the top of a turnbuckle pole as he was being sent flying out of the ring, pulled himself up to the top of the pole and then jumped back into the match.
** 2018: He landed with one foot on the floor and the other on Wrestling/XavierWoods. [[Wrestling/BigELangston Big E]] then pulls out a plate full of pancakes for one of Kofi's foot to step to prevent Kofi from being eliminated and although Wrestling/JinderMahal tries to block his way, Wrestling/TheNewDay as a team launched Kofi into the ring like a catapult, with Kofi leapfrogging Jinder afterwards.

** [[SkywardScream NACHOS!!!]]
* His TakeThat to country music when Wrestling/TheNewDay were doing a promo segment in Nashville, Tennessee.
* During a backstage segment when he spoke about his "Jamaican character".
** When CM Punk came back in late 2023 and reunited with Kofi, he went for a hug with Kofi by shouting “JAMAICAN ME CRAZY” which Kofi responded with he didn’t do that anymore. A confused Punk asks if Kofi is Jamaican which Kofi responds with “Not anymore” which only confuses Punk further.
* In June 2019, Wrestling/SamoaJoe ambushed and attacked Kofi several times in order to set up a title match between them at ''Extreme Rules 2019''. At one point, Joe promised to leave Kofi alone until the title match if Kofi would shake his hand. Instead, Kofi [[FlippingTheBird flipped him the bird]] and then knocked him out.
* In July 2019, a fan asked on Twitter why Kofi's chest "looks like it's collapsed". Kofi replies to the tweet with a fully in-character explanation, telling the fan that Wrestling/TheBigShow chopped him in the chest in '09 and it hadn't been the same since.[[note]]Kofi actually has a genetic malformation of called sternum called ''pectus excavatum'' that's become more noticeable as he's shed bulk to retain his impressive agility into his 30s[[/note]]
* [[FakeNationality Jamaican Accent]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_Rf0FQfgzA Kofi Kingston]] makes a hilarious comeback during the "New Day: Feel the Power" stream.
* Kofi Kingston legitimately got into a fight with Wrestling/VinceMcMahon, because Wrestling/ChrisJericho told him to. During a flight, Vince made a comment saying "If you ever got over, you can be Champion!" as a joke. Kofi took it on the chin, but Jericho came up to him and told him "Are you going to let him tell you that, you get back in there and confront him", his Boss, mind you. Sure enough, it led to them grappling, which all end with essentially both sides laughing it off.
