A Kofi Kingston Controversy

This is a little strange: The BBC has posted an article on Kofi Kingston that questions his heritage.

As WWE officials like to publicize, Kingston is the first-ever superstar to hail from Jamaica... or is he?

His mother Elizabeth - the head of a Ghanaian-American organization in the U.S. - said that her son was bornn Ghana. The family moved to America in 1982.

"I told him: 'Kofi, your cousins watch you on TV in Ghana and want to know why you don't say you're from Ghana,'" she said.

Kofi's response? "Tell them it is business."

It is business. And if this story is true...who cares? Don't superstars often change their persona and background in order to fit a character?

We hate to break it to the BBC, but Kane wasn't really burned alive as a child, either.

    Its a shame that Kofi is not proud of his country. Kofi, we are proud as Ghanaians and when you get your sense back on track, come back home.
