by Kofi Kingston defended his WWE Title against Brock Lesnar on the first episode of WWE SmackDown on Fox, which was on 10/4/2019. Many fans were unhappy with how the match ended.
Brock Lesnar when the bell rang, hits an F5 to Kofi Kingston and wins the match. It was one of the shortest WWE Championship matches in WWE history.
Kofi Kingston recently gave an interview to SEScoops, where he reflected on his match against Brock Lesnar. Kofi says he would have loved if that match had lasted longer.
“There’s two lines of thought on it. Number one, I don’t get paid by the hour, so that is probably the most amount of money that I’ve made in the least amount of time on the roster.
But obviously, when you have a WWE Championship match, especially with what it meant to win that title, I would’ve loved for it to have lasted longer and I would’ve loved to beat Brock Lesnar, but of course, I came up short. You can’t dwell on it. It’s always forward in this industry and that’s the route I’ve chosen to take,” (H/T: Inside The Ropes)
