+sXeJerichoHolic It wasn't so much the injuries ( He said in the interview that the injury that really screwed him over was the supposed Tricep tear in 07 that caused them to take the MITB from him and he didn't even tear his Tricep, they lied and screwed him out of a World Title) I think that a lot of people just didn't like him in WWE.
+Jacob Pickerin I'm pretty sure that Randy and Jeff Hardy violated the Wellness Policy more than Anderson did. I'm not trying to dismiss what you've said cause I agree he should've never taken anything, but notice how they've always been more lenient with Hardy and Orton because they're Triple H's guys, but Anderson got the shafted because certain guys didn't like his attitude.
+Jacob Pickerin that's the least of it, Randy Orton did drugs look at his career but the difference is Randy Orton hasn't injured many wrestlers, Anderson/Kennedy banged up every top guy.
He should interfere in Shane vs Taker match for revenge against his own 'father' to help out Vince's actual son. Besides, he should have revenge on Taker since he had a feud with him back in late '06, but I'm thinking now that Sting will win now.
@TheDreamSmasher "Injured Cena a week before he was supposed to drop the strap to Orton" - That's not true. If you watch their match, Cena injured himself when he armdrag Anderson and popped his shoulder in the process. Anderson sold the move perfectly, but Cena likely suffered from a common ware and tear incident. Anderson noticed quickly then protected Cena's shoulder for the rest of the match.
Victory .Studios Yet people still cheer for wrestlers like Randy Orton. As a grown man I wouldn't even glance twice if I stumble across Orton in a stairwell. Manchild.
Thomas Hardy lol only manchild is you hating on a random wrestler for no apparent reason. What did Orton do? He didn’t get ken fired if that’s what you think. Ken did by being an asshole backstage and burning bridges he had. The botched suplex on Orton was just the nail in the coffin. Ken Kennedy said so himself that the botched suplex wasn’t the sole reason they fired him. And ken also said on Austin’s podcast that Orton forgave him for the botched suplex and tried voguing for him when he herd they were firing him. Only one who ended Kens career was him. That’s why he’s humble now. He’s accepted it was his fault and his mistakes and he’s at peace.
WWE or wrestling as a whole has always been a stressful career. It's like Hollywood and NFL all together where you have to initiate good politics to remain in the spot, it's just all in all stress. I understand CM Punk's frustration. A lot of hierarchy.
I love him because he's not ashamed of talk about anything... but at the same time he feels like it's unfair to blame WWE for his run in WWE I mean, the screwed him big time.... and all he says is: "it is what it is.. maybe I didn't do thing well" such a great person
KENNEDY.............KENNEDY. WWE should bring him back. Now that he's older he sounds like he has a more mature outlook and better head on his shoulders. His charisma, mic skills and in ring ability would make him a top guy in the company.
I love seeing pro wrestlers outside of their characters. They always seem like really cool guys, whether they're heel or face while in character. It's the same with him. He seems like an extremely cool guy to hangout with.
I was a huge Mr. Kennedy fan, and was very very sorry to see him leave. He had a great ring gimmick, was fit like anything, and I thought a really good wrestler. All best wishes for him.
Mr Kennedy was a once in a lifetime character the fact they were going to put the tittle on Jim of 2007 grinds me gears. Sure he got injured but WWE missed out on more views and positives !!!! Damn Kennedy could have main evented consistently
That story about Steph calling him and lying about the torn triceps and Edge getting the spot just goes to show how that industry is. Who knows tho, if he was already F'n up and causing problems that was WWEs chance to stall him out.
Kayfabe Commentaries did a You shoot with him its tremendous he does an insane chris benoit impression " Did u stand up for yourself or did u just take it like a c**t" 🤣
With the state of things in WWE right now, if his music hit interrupting one of The Authority's 20 minute promos, it would be one of the largest pops ever.
Great interview, very honest. He was my fav in WWE but now hes just one of my favs in TNA. All good. I do enjoy TNA because I see that creative freedom. Hope to see more of Mr. Anderson in the ring tho.
Very refreshing to hear someone who was fired who then doesn’t sound bitter and resentful and blames everyone else. An honest guy with integrity, great to see! 👍
Most interesting thing about this to me is Anderson is another name that confirmed a misdiagnosis from a wwe doctor (the so called best doctors in the world) . Though in this case it was a positive misdiagnosis as he wasn't as injured as they thought.
I remember Mr Kennedy when he was in smackdown he was one of my favourite wrestlers because he has a lot of charisma and his entrance when he announced himself like if he was the best wrestler in the world was funny as hell
I Love Watching Mr. Anderson On TNA Impact Wrestling I used to see him in the wwe as Mr. Kennedy What If he can come back to The Wwe with the Mr. Anderson stuff there that would be cool there. From Jon Emens Here in Memphis Tennessee
Coming from Birmingham that's how doctors work. They just touch you injured arm and go "Nah that's not a tear" or "Yeah that's a tear". One of the greatest cities for that kind of stuff.
You should try getting an Orlando Jordan interview now because you've done a video for all my favorite wrestlers besides him now. Only one to go in love with Your channel 🙏🏻⚡️
actually it was big fault of him too that wwe release him.. he was very egoistic, and had very bad chemistry with many guys... we all remember orton almost got injured. yeah it was hhh that influenced vince a lot, but cmon keneddy wasnt easiest guy to get agreement and never seen him as top main eventer. he was ok as international champ or tag champ, but as main face, i cant see him, only in smaller companies
+Dean Marks i liked it because i was a huge smackdown fan and it was back when rosters were split by what show drafted you. So i got lucky cause i went to smackdown and got to see a cage match and have a raw only superstar pop up and win a smackdown title which i knew would send him to smackdown. Which was great because Smackdown my fav over raw. But now its just a joke.
+Dean Marks I cried because my favorite heel stole the MITB from my second favorite heel, it would have been my three favorite wrestlers(Edge,RVD, and Kennedy) at the time after Cena(yeah, yeah ik, sue me) would have each won their first world championship three straight years off cashing in MITB, I was really sour about that for a long time, idk how I feel now though about hearing it was because they mistakenly thought he was injured
i'm big randy orton fan but, i feel like he did him dirty back in 2007 when kennedy got suspended and randy don't, and back in 2009 randy was the reason he got fired.
Oh my gosh, he cracks me up! Only the Rock could come close to making me laugh as hard as Mr. Anderson, and seeing that first part reminded me of why that is.
Kevin Owen chews gum all the time what the Hell does WWE get outta Torturing, there Superstars(Mr.Kennedy) for chewing gum. Owens probably chews Tabacco so much for there Drug/Steroids Policy( hypothetically speaking)
I remember when he wouldn't even talk about WWE because it mad ehim so angry and now he's moderately considering returning given the right opportunity. hopefully, CM Punk might feel the same way in 5 years and not have to apologize for what he said.
He had charisma. Something most wrestlers lack these days.
Still has

I have always been a fan of Mr. Anderson.

I met Mr.Anderson at a TNA show in 2010. This dude is funny as shit.

Love kennedy shame he didnt get the big boy belt but hes still amazing
I met him in 2006 and he was a hoot.

He will interfere, I mean
HAHA! That would have been AWESOME!
Mr. Kennedy would've been 💰💰💰💰💰
It was going to set up Mr. Kennedy vs Triple H at WM 24
The more I look back, this guy had it all in wwe. They really missed out on him.
I would of brought him back to Win the United States Title against John Cena in Hell in a Cell, instead of Alberto Del Rio

Wow. I have a whole new respect for Mr. Anderson. He seems like someone that you can go to to get great advice

I like this guy. He is showing maturity in this video. He know he messed up in certain situations, and seems to have learnt from it
He was my favourite back in the 2000s. He should be on tv all the time. So much charisma.
I love him because he's not ashamed of talk about anything... but at the same time he feels like it's unfair to blame WWE for his run in WWE

TheMacocko hahaha true
Mr. Anderson should be a real announcer in WWE when he retires from wrestling.
He's commentating for boxing now
@@TheGoldDragon100 wow never new about that.
I bet you he would be a great voice actor. He has got that huge bass in his voice when he projects.

*That MITB story is crazy I never knew about it*
I hate the politics that prevented Ken to be world champion.
I know it was Bob Holly, who was the first guy that didn't like Kennedy.
+kenterminatedbygoogle Holly didn't like anybody lol
The Urban Ninja
He likes JBL, oh wait, they are both bullies so I guess they are made for each other.
kenterminatedbygoogle Figures
There were no politics, dude was in line for a huge push but was injury prone and got suspended for roids.
sXeJerichoHolic
True
I've worked with Mr. Anderson. Extremely talented and safe.
I will always remember the times I always chose Mr. Kennedy in the WWE console games just to watch the hilarious entry and lough my ass off.
That story about Steph calling him and lying about the torn triceps and Edge getting the spot just goes to show how that industry is. Who knows tho, if he was already F'n up and causing problems that was WWEs chance to stall him out.
So he wasnt injured in 2007
We need a full 1-2 hour Ken Anderson interview. Please make it happen, CVV!
Kayfabe Commentaries did a You shoot with him its tremendous he does an insane chris benoit impression " Did u stand up for yourself or did u just take it like a c**t" 🤣
He was and still is my favorite from the ruthless aggression era.
Bruh he wasn’t even top 10 lol he didn’t even get a ship

Mcmahon punishing Anderson for making trouble, while his theme is titled TURN UP THE TROUBLE
Years later…..easy to see, everyone loves mr.Anderson!
With the state of things in WWE right now, if his music hit interrupting one of The Authority's 20 minute promos, it would be one of the largest pops ever.
Could've absolutely been a main event guy in WWE. Charismatic, loves the business, doesn't make a mockery of it.
Still sucks to see that Kennedy never reached his full potential in WWE. I wanna see that entrance one more time in a Royal Rumble
I dont know if its chris, but everybody has great interviews with this guy, they are all so humble and real around him
i just love it how anderson involved chris benoit and how people misunderstood everything.
very insightful interview wish more wrestlers were this honest and laid back
He mentions Benoit at 9:42
I become a Mr Kennedy fan when he was feuding with Taker. i really thought this feud was underrated.
Zerblog Flurhmen Was nothing Ike DDP at all tf lol
He is SO needed in AEW
him vs mjf yes

I’ve heard nothing but good things about mr Anderson. He’s genuinely a nice guy! 😊😊
OMG well done amazing interview
First vid I've ever seen with no dislike at 7k views
damn WWE needs this man to boost ratings up. he is badass
Mr Anderson should come back to wwe
Mr Kennedy should return to WWE*
i love you Mr. Anderson hope you come back to the WWE
Mr kennedy looks like ryback💀💀
I Love Watching Mr. Anderson On TNA Impact Wrestling I used to see him in the wwe as Mr. Kennedy What If he can come back to The Wwe with the Mr. Anderson stuff there that would be cool there. From Jon Emens Here in Memphis Tennessee
Damn, i missing him so much, what an impressive man
One of the biggest WHAT IFs in the history of WWE in my book
one of the best talents i have seen it's a shame what wwe did to him he could of been champion
I have a lot of respect for this guy because he is a very understated wrestler that I always though was hilarious and was awesome in WWE and TNA
This Guy had soooo much potential.
are you going to do interviews at the next NXT event in Miami on March 17?
This guy should be a top dog in WWE right now...sad how things turned out.
Someone already said it but true true if Kennedy as McMahons son went thru it would have been lit
If Scott hall can go out with a toothstick or whatever it calls Mr. Anderson can go out with bubble gum.
SleepyDroid only difference was Scott hall had the razor Ramon gimmick which was basically a tony Montana type gimmick so it made sense
Even Triple H chewed gum
Mr. Perfect would chew gum before every match.
Man i smiled hard af at that intro ... ahhhh the good ol days

Lmaoo the first minute and 15 seconds of this video is hilarious. Ken frat bro-ing it up

What did Mr Kennedy say that gave him heat about the Benoit situation?
Just assuming he probably thought it was wrong that they erased his entire legacy and won't ever mention him
Could've been a top character for yeaaaaaaars. Could've been a hall of famer I truly believe that
It blows my mind how wwe is against steroids
WWE is raging hypocrites. What else is new?

vince put down alot of great ideas....some of his ideas were the worst any booker could have done! he's not good at all, he just owns the business
I consider Mr Kennedy a wee world champion
Anderson just doesn't have the same pop to it as Kennedy. Will always be Mr Kennadayyyyyyy to me
Goddamn they screwed Anderson hardcore. Big difference between a torn muscle and a bruise.
I remember when he wouldn't even talk about WWE because it mad ehim so angry and now he's moderately considering returning given the right opportunity. hopefully, CM Punk might feel the same way in 5 years and not have to apologize for what he said.
I’d love to see him get another run
Just one time i wanted him to say "lets get ready to rumble!"
He should have been one of the best today
Two months after this, he was let go from TNA on the spot due to a failed drug test.
