I don't see how he wastes time. He goes out there, plays the character he is supposed to play, and wrestles the match he is supposed to wrestle. He is actually quite time efficient in the ring, if you ask me. You are entitled to not like his gimmick, but when he is on the mic he has presence. There is not one person who is not aware when Ken Kennedy is cutting a promo in the arena, and when he's out there he demands the spotlight. Whether or not you like him, that is something a big star in the business needs to be able to do. You can call him annoying if you want, but Cena annoys me, yet he is one of the most over guys in the company. My opinion is just as valid as the next guys, but unfortunately, I'm in the minority. On a side note, my nephew (who is ten years old), absolutely despises Cena, dislikes Batista (but doesn't dislike him as much as Cena, he's just not his favourite superstar) and when I walke din on him watching a SmackDown! re-run yesterday, he said "This guy is awesome," when Mr Kennedy was doing his stuff. Now it may not mean anything, but my nephew is your basic fan, yet he enjoys Ken Kennedy. I think there is seriously money in the guy. |

I think he's an average wrestler, and I'm one of the KEneddy supporters.

I loved how he really sold Booker two weeks ago.

Actually, I loved that little double kick/spinning heel kick he did. ( Ken goes this big ass kick, Booker ducks, and Ken follows through in one swift motion with a heel kick, catching him on the jaw.) Slickness.
He'll probably feud with Booker T, Benoit. Personally, I'm waiting for the Burchill Benoit food. That'll be golden. I also think that eventually, WWE will pair Kennedy and Burchhill, with Regal trying to turn Kennedy into a more serious fighter (like Burchill). Of course, Kennedy will eventually turn face, become more self absorbed than ever, and feud with Regal and Burchill. Good stuff. |

His supposed "mic skills" are indescribably bad. There is nothing great about doing your own announcing, and doing a mediocre job in the process; and a lack of overall promo skills. There are a bunch of other guys out there more deserving of his spot, especially guys within the company, and yet they are focusing the future of their company on mediocre, everyday talents. I remember back when it used to mean something to wrestle for WWF/WWE; now as long as you suck, you're guaranteed a job. A good percentage of the roster blows, and their developmental system is basically developing a group of sucky talents [Johnny Swinger, The Shanes, etc.] |

So basically, an opinion thing. Fair enough then.

Truth is though, anyone of those dozen indy guys would be toned down in the WWE so someone else will be online saying "They suck, I can name better guys than them!", I'm not trying to imply your brainless or anything (anyone with Conan as their avatar has my respect), but there will always be people who think one guy sucks and others are more deserving. Right now, Kennedy is running with the ball he's been given, and I am happy for him. |

Running with "the ball"? There is no ball for Ken Kennedy. He's been on television for three weeks. He isn't even allowed to to touch the ball yet.
And earlier in this thread, I think somebody actually said that Kennedy reminded them of a young Steve Austin. Shut up. Every single time a new wrestler and looks talented, a bunch of people in this forum scream "He reminds me of the ROCK!!" What they aren't telling you is that everyone reminds them of the Rock. |

Even popular wrestlers aren't allowed to cut loose. Do you really think these guys would be that spectacular in the WWE? Look at everyone talking about Burchill's greatness, and suddenly he's a brawler with an armbar finisher. |

Burchill is great even as a brawler with a armbar finish.

Ken Kennedy isn't great. He isn't bad. He has been on TV for 3 fucking weeks, he barley is noticable yet.

I look for him to beat Benoit for the U.S. title before the year is over.

I guess the first name that pops into mind are Orton and Cena........but you never really hear anybody talk about them being the next big thing anymore, do you KK? And if Orton and Cena couldn't do it, i'm betting Ken Kennedy can't.

People say people remind them of someone SOMETIMES because they do. John Cena reminded people of Sting because was the ruthless rookie trying to mke an impact. Randy Orton reminded people of The Rock because he was the young blue chipper turned arrogant asshole. Sometimes people remind people of other people because aspects of their characters are THE SAME. There is no crime in that. And by the way, I wouldn't be surprised to see Ken Kennedy beat Chris Benoit for the WWE United States Championship this year. Wouldn't be surprised in the slightest. |

Kayfabe is losing his smile.
![]() Wait... Did he ever smile? ![]() Your lack of faith in the business is disturbing. Ideas for comeback: 'I find Vince's lack of faith in talented wrestlers disturbing' 'I lost my smile the same day Vince lost his mind' 'KENNEDY SUCKS!' That last one really isn't your style, though. |

The people who have said it that I've seen generally admit they're not on the same level, but compare the roles. Apparently you're not good with the comprehension but though. You can name two people that posters claim are the next Rock "all the time?" You lose. You failed to back up your argument, especially since the two examples you gave is wrong, both by your original statement, AND by the statement nobody says it anymore. You just don't understand what they're saying. Now go away. |
