Since the creation of NXT, Triple H has taken WWE to another level by creating competition among the brand. Once in a while, we see several main roster stars appear in NXT and have a match or two with upcoming stars. However, a top NXT star recently called Kofi Kingston’s injury “karma” for ruining his life.

Pretty Deadly’s Kit Wilson didn’t hold back from speaking his mind about the former WWE Champion. From sharing frustrations with The New Day, Wilson took a shot at Kingston’s injury.

Kit Wilson claims former Kofi Kingston deserves his current injury!

The New Day member, ‘The Kingster’ suffered an ankle injury on the March 3, 2023 episode of SmackDown. Since then, he has been out of action.

However, a few months prior Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods spent some time in NXT and won its Tag Team gold, too. They defeated Pretty Deadly at NXT Deadline to win the titles. Kit Wilson isn’t happy about it and recently expressed it in an interview with Jim Varsallone.

Wilson said, “It’s been a downhill, downward spiral since.” Elton Prince said, “It’s been a real rough journey. You know what hurts most? They know what they’ve done. There’s no remorse, there’s no regret, there’s no guilt. They’re off living their merry lives now. ‘Oh, let’s go down, ruin Pretty Deadly’s lives and then carry on as normal,” 

Wilson added, “I’ll say this. Maybe Kofi, recently (got injured), I don’t want to say it, but it’s karma,”

This was a huge shot at Kingston, who is out from in-ring action for some time. Wilson also went on to say The New Day appeared in NXT uninvited and ended their NXT tag team run.

Wilson wasn’t serious about saying this as he was talking about his on-screen character. There might be a pitch to reignite the feud in the future and Pretty Deadly even praised The New Day.

Before making all the complaints about Woods and Kingston taking away their momentum, Wilson and Prince praised them. They revealed their admiration by revealing that they’ve been following the seven-time tag team champions for a long time.

Wilson said, “Yes technically it’s an honor to be in the ring with them, technically we grew up watching them. Technically they are inspirations and role models of the tag team division.” Prince added, “Technically we’ve looked up to them for years and think they are brilliant.”

The New Day has made a name in the tag team division for a while now. Currently, as Kingston and Big E are injured, Woods is on a singles run. However, everybody hopes the team reunites soon and wins the gold again. Moreover, these comments from Wilson will surely act as a catalyst when reignites their feud in the future.
