Undertaker Injures Kennedy and Gets Him Fired

Mr. Kennedy updated his official site and in it he talks about two instances that are really close to what may (or may not) have happened to him in the WWE that caused his injuries.

What do I think?

It sounds like THE UNDERTAKER injured Kennedy overseas or at a house show with an arm lock. What do you think?

Read Kennedy's blog post below:

"If I take a sledgehammer and SMASH you in the side of the head and you get hurt very badly, does that make you "injury prone"?

If I cut off your arm with a samurai sword, and you have to have it reattached (causing you to miss several months of work) are you also then to be considered..."injury prone"?

Well let's say that you're in a match in Italy standing on the apron during a ten man tag match, and a guy is supposed to come over and give you a little forearm which will cause you to drop to the floor, but INSTEAD, he decides to drop kick your ass into the 20th row, he virtually leg presses you off the apron, and you have a "Matrix" like moment in your head where you see yourself flying backwards through the air. You clear the mats that line the floor outside the ring and because you're trying to protect your head from smashing into the guardrail, you stretch your right arm over your head. At the moment you make IMPACT with the concrete floor, your arm stretched out over your head and the sudden stop causes the tendon in your latissimus dorsi (or that big back muscle that you see on bodybuilders, ya know the ones that look like wings...) to SNAP in two and it coils up down your side to the point that's in line with your belly button. Let's say.....hypothetically.......that this happened to you. Would you call yourself...."injury prone"?

Let's throw another "hypothetical situation" out there. Let's say that you're having a match with a guy who's just supposed to give you a lil' old schoolboy to end the match. Just a nice and easy rollup for the finish. In fact the night before he hit you with his finish and the crowd didn't really react as strongly as you would have liked it to, so the agent (or producer) who's in charge of your match that night has told your opponent specifically NOT to hit his finish. Now keep in mind that having said this, your opponent's finisher is probably the furthest thing from your mind. So as you're waiting for this nice little easy rollup for the finish, the guy leaps into the air, hooks your head tight, causing your right arm to get caught between your two bodies, and drives you chest first into the mat. You go from standing to laying on your stomach with your arm stretched across your chest and your shoulder pops out of it's socket, tearing that muscle about 60% away from the bone. Now again, would an event such as this make you......"injury prone"?

Now if something like this HAD ever happened to me (again, these are strictly hypothetical situations), I probably wouldn't say anything about it to anyone. I for one would never want to bury another talent, whine or cry about it, I'd probably just chalk it up to poor judgment, and being in the wrong place at the wrong time, rather than accusing someone of being a stiff in the ring. Let's face it, accidents happen in the wrestling business which is why there are countless videos of "wrestling screw-ups" on YouTube. Every once in awhile if you're in the wrestling business, you're gonna get a BOO-BOO."

Over Analyzing Wrestling: Injuries and More

Kennedy got into the news again, and guess what? He’s injured! That’s right, Kennedy seems to be having bad luck with staying healthy, and since getting suspended for the Juice, he’s once again on the injured list. This is the second time in recent years that he’s had an injury. He won’t be out too much longer, just a few weeks from what I’m hearing, but this can’t fair well for his stagnant push towards the midcard hell that Benjamin used to be in. Kennedy seems to just be having a string of bad luck, and this isn’t going to be a main seller for his potential, and most likely will slow down his non existent push. He’ll be back and be fed to Koslov most likely. Kennedy needs to stay healthy for long periods of time, and if the shoulder is going to be a problem, maybe he needs to get that thing worked on. Look at Randy Orton and his shoulder!

Mick Foley wants to quit. That’s right, he wants to quit because his boss Vince McMahon keeps yelling at him. I hear ya Foley, I wouldn’t want anyone yelling into my headset for hours on end, but then again, the paycheck man! I read that Foley is in a good financial state and doesn’t HAVE to work! What the heck? Foley! I hope you read what I say somehow, get a yellow pad of paper and start writing! That’s right! You’re a New York Times best selling Author, so get back to it! Forget the WWE and talking, and getting beat up for no reason! Just walk away, and start writing again and listening to Christmas music in August! I would quit if I were Foley, but I don’t know how Foley really is, so I guess I’m just talking out of ignorance. I know one thing’s for sure, if my job had a boss that screamed at me, and I didn’t have to work here, I wouldn’t.

Ric Flair is done with the WWE. Didn’t HE RETIRE? WHAT THE HECK? How is this news? This bugs me greatly! Who cares! He’s retired now! No more talk about Ric Flair! We don’t talk about Kevin Sullivan, Steamboat, and other retired wrestlers do we? Dangit!

Triple H sucks. That’s right, He sucks. Why? He just had a kid, he has the title, and he’s non existent on Smackdown, yet he has a match with Khali coming up at Summerslam? What the heck? Someone strip Triple H of the title for inactivity, please! CM Punk is turning into a workhorse over on Raw and Triple H is just living it up. Nice, way to show the other guys that being champion means a lot of work. If he’s going to take time off, at least get the title on someone who’s going to be defending it, or better yet, all titles need to get the same defense schedule as Punk. That guy is wrestling single’s matches each Monday Night. I demand more out of the champions if Punk is going to be used this way.

No sign of Mysterio. Maybe he’ll just get fired with the rest of the cruiserweights.

TNA news? I don’t know if anything that comes out of TNA is real or fake. I mean didn’t Kaz quit? Not really, just in the show. Apparently Tomko quit? Maybe. Team 3 D wan’ts more money? I don’t know. TNA sucks at promoting themselves sometimes, and they are a LONG way from being a true alternative to WWE like WCW was.

That does it for what I had to talk about. Wrestling so far this week hasn’t been great, Raw was good though, but not great. Maybe Impact and Smackdown will rescue things a bit.

Cena's Done



John Cena is injured.

No, it's not a joke.

John Cena ripped a pectoral muscle completely.

This of course is a thing that happens when you use STEROIDS!

I have no evidence to support such a thing, but the Man who has carried the WWE for 13 months and recently for a long time while HHH was gone, and Mysterio was Gone and Undertaker was gone...wow....

Cena gone means a NEW CHAMPION soon! I hope it's not Orton though, I don't want to see it.

How did Cena get injured? Mr. Kennedy's hip toss apparently did the trick, but I think it's just the harsh schedule that Cena has put his body through.

Notice that Edge hasn't returned yet, and there's no real announcement of pending return, unless he's part of the 222 thing...which would be kind of cool! EDGE!!!!

I can hear the music going....

I'm tired.

Cena was getting stale anyways.

Scot Steiner Has a Broken Neck



Who cares. That's the first thing that came to mind right when I heard the news. The guy that has taken more steroids than anyone else in the business, and totally ruined all credibility with me and other fans is sitting in a hospital bed wondering why.

Or maybe he's not. Maybe h's enjoying his little "break" from the ring.

He'll be crawling back to TNA as if people wanted to see the guy wrestle. I wanted to see him wrestle when he was a fast moving, fast paced wrestler with a knockout style that matched no one else. I wanted to see him thrive as a singles wrestler until he got on the juice.

So now that he's out, maybe TNA can get some new talent in there.
