After Kofi Kingston lost the WWE Championship to Brock Lesnar at the premiere of WWE Friday Night SmackDown on FOX, several WWE Superstars took to Twitter to lift up and encourage the former champion.
The following day Kofi Kingston responded on Twitter stating he is overwhelmed by the outpouring of love he has seen.
You can read the Tweets below from the WWE Superstars showing their support, followed by Kingston’s response.
In my opinion @TrueKofi created the greatest Wrestlemania moment of all time. Tonight his title reign was ended by a man who cares nothing for other people, he is wreckless, and he disgust me.
Now begins the hustle to bring that WWE heavyweight championship back to the New Day.

#ThankYouKofi for giving me one my favorite career moments. Sad to see his reign end the way it did. I lost my first WHC in 18 seconds, and came away more determined (and angry!) because of it. I’m sure @TrueKofi will do the same. Respect… Always. BUT #StillMadYouBeatMe

I've been around pro wrestling since I was 8 yrs old.. & despite having some of the most unique athletes in the world in this business.. we were always treated like outsiders.
It's cool to see "pro wrestlers" finally given the respect they deserve on this stage. #SmackdownOnFox

I'll elaborate on the wording of my prior Tweet..@TrueKofi is the best of us. He is the prime example of a dude with a contagious work ethic and energy. In a world filled with people constantly trying to bring you down.. he's "one of the good ones" that actually raise you up.

And @TrueKofi you made and make a difference man. Be proud.
