After giving the performance of his career in the Elimination Chamber earlier this month, Kofi Kingston has earned himself a match against Daniel Bryan at Fastlane in March. The match is said to be closing out the event, and it will see Bryan put his WWE Championship on the line. However, it was announced earlier this week that the two men will be involved in a contract signing for the match during SmackDown this Tuesday night. During a live event in Columbia over the weekend, Kingston and his New Day comrades decided to hype up the upcoming segment. Kingston has been competing for WWE for eleven years, and his Fastlane bout could turn out to be the biggest match of his entire wrestling career.

The Chicago Comic and Entertainment Expo is coming soon, and two big guest from the world of pro wrestling will be involved in the event. Former WWE Superstar and current MMA fighter CM Punk is one of the guest who be appearing, and Ring of Honor competitor Marty Scurll has also been announced for C2E2. They will be signing autographs and posing for photos with fans while representing Pro Wrestling Tees. CM Punk even posted a tweet claiming that he will thumb wrestle Scurll during C2E2. It’s worth noting that The Young Bucks and Kenny Omega were previously announced for C2E2. Given Scurll’s history with those men, it will be interesting to see if any sort of developments will come out of the expo.
