Kofi Kingston has accepted an open challenge to face Intercontinental Champion Penta for his title on Monday’s episode of Raw.
The championship match is set to take place at Madison Square Garden in New York. Penta initiated the challenge via Instagram Stories on Saturday.
Kingston responded to the titleholder through a post on X on Sunday:
No se diga mas, cabron. I would love nothing more than to walk into the depths of Hell (New York) and pry the Holy Grail (IC Title) from the vile grips of the Devil himself (Penta). See you tomorrow, amigo.
Penta captured the title from Dominik Mysterio earlier this month. The champion subsequently retained the belt against El Grande Americano, Dragon Lee, and Mysterio.
