Kofi Kingston Sets Tag Team Title Record; Kofi And CM Punk Comment
Kofi Kingston may very well be the greatest tag team wrestler alive. If not, he’s certainly the most accomplished.
By entering Tuesday as one-third of the SmackDown Tag Team Champions, Kingston set the all-time mark for most days as a member of the tag team champions.
Kingston is a four-time WWE (Raw) Tag Team Champion, holding the belts alongside Evan Bourne, R-Truth, and his New Day partners Big E and Xavier Woods. He’s also a three-time SmackDown Tag Team Champion (all with The New Day) and a one-time World Tag Team Champion with CM Punk.
Here’s how Kofi’s reigns breakdown:
Raw Tag Team Champion
W/ Evan Bourne – 146
W/ R-Truth – 139
W/ New Day (1) – 50
W/ New Day (2) – 483
SmackDown Tag Team Champion
W/ New Day – 28
W/ New Day (2) – 26
W/ New Day (3, Current) – 35
World Tag Team Champion
W/ CM Punk – 47
