As part of Kmart’s new, exclusive sponsorship of WWE, Intercontinental Wrestling Champion, Kofi Kingston will make an appearance at a Tampa Kmart store.

Hailing from West Africa, Kingston brings unique in-ring abilities and style to the WWE®. A fan favorite, Kingston maintains his bright, amiable smile while destroying his opponents with high-flying, high-impact offense.

Kingston made an immediate impact on the WWE® upon his arrival in 2008, first wining the Intercontinental Championship from Chris Jehrico, then becoming World Tag Team Champion with CM Punk and then capturing the United States Championship.

Consumers and members of the media are invited to the in-store appearance to learn more about Kmart’s sponsorship of WWE. Media are welcome to shoot footage, take photos, and interview Kingston and/or Kmart executives about the new partnership.


WWE and Kmart recently announced that Kmart will be the exclusive presenting sponsor of all WWE’s U.S. live events throughout 2011. As part of the partnership, WWE is providing in-store appearances by WWE Superstars and Divas.


The signing will be Thursday, March 10th at the Kmart Store at 2915 N. Dale Mabry Hwy, Tampa, FL 33607 from 6 to 8pm.

Be there and meet the IC Champ!!
