| here it is: WWE axed Mr. Kennedy this week. Believe it or not, Randy Orton didn't get him fired. If you recall, during last week's tag match Kennedy dropped Orton right on his shoulder with a sloppy back suplex. It was the same shoulder where Orton had blown out his collarbone and Orton was irate over it. He almost lost his temper in the ring but ended up calming down and just tagging out. He did give Kennedy a hard RKO, driving him into the mat and apparently tweaking Kennedy's wrist (more on that later). In the dressing room afterwards Orton gave him a stern dressing-down, which Kennedy took as kind of a "come to Jesus"-type speech, a message that he needed to up his game and reverse his rep or else. It was noted that Orton, who has talked extensively of maturing in the last few years, particularly since getting married and having a kid, is apparently sincere about that because at another time this might have led to a serious physical altercation. Later in the evening, two major, major stars who are not fans of Kennedy went to Vince and took the opportunity to air their feelings on the matter. Vince, already in a shitty, shitty mood from the NBA deal, lost his cool on the plane ride home. He cut a "scathing promo" about Kennedy, talking about how he was reckless, still green as a worker, clueless when it comes to business instincts and a huge liability. Apparently nobody in creative or talent relations was willing to say a word in his defense. The general consensus was that he was too frustrating to deal with because whenever you came up with an idea for him there was a good chance that it would be completely derailed within a few months due to injury or something else. Vince was so mad he said that Kennedy was on the DO NOT CALL list, which very few people actually make. Now, granted, Vince was baked with stress and Kennedy was in the wrong place at the wrong time, so I would expect Vince to cool off at some point. But as of Friday, it was one of those HE'LL NEVER WORK HERE AGAIN GOD DAMMIT days. One person said: "I cannot condemn the way the office handled this termination at all. He was reckless with his mouth and at other times with his in-ring". In addition to the two stars who buried him this week, there were got reports of two more major stars (it probably isn't hard to figure out as they're all multi-time long-term world champions and it doesn't get any more influential than three of them, and the fourth is on his way, and all have worked regularly with Kennedy in the past) who also buried him, saying they hated working with him and "thought he was horrible and clumsy". Kennedy decided to put one over on Internet reports that he'd badly injured his wrist by going on his Facebook and recording a video of him shaking both of them vigorously. The comedy is that nobody said he was badly injured, only that he'd hurt his wrist in the match and based on follow-up questions it didn't seem like it was a big deal. Ken Anderson signed with the company in 2005 and was brought up to the main roster in August of that year. Paul Heyman gave him the name "Kennedy" because that's Vince's middle name and he figured he'd always get a push because of it. In fact, at one point he was planned to be the storyline son of Vince in a role that for a number of reasons, not the least of which was Kennedy's name showing up on the Signature Pharmacy list just 12 days after insisting in media interviews that he hadn't used steroids since November of 2005, ended up going to Hornswaggle. Kennedy proceeded to do one stupid interview after another, the most recent being in March of this year when he said WWE was too vigorous in their steroid testing and that if he was taking something that wasn't hurting anyone else, what was the big deal? He also had ten million different excuses for the Signature deal, none of which made any sense at all. His first injury, a lat tear, took place in December of 2005. He was out six months. His second injury, in May 2007, was an injured triceps. At the time he was the holder of the Money in the Bank briefcase and the plan was for him to cash it in and become champion. Because he was hurt, WWE had Edge beat him to win the briefcase. As it turned out, the injury wasn't as bad as expected, and instead of being out five to seven months he was only out a couple. He was irate at the having lost the opportunity at the title. After his name came out with Signature he was suspended 30 days. His next injury was in August of 2008 when he blew out his shoulder in a house show match with Shelton Benjamin. Due to the injury and his filming of Behind Enemy Lines he was out until May of this year. f4w newsletter | |

| Has HHH worked with Kennedy before? I actually think he is not to blame. Maybe Cena? | |
