Mr. Kennedy revealed in a recent interview with the Miami Herald that his shoulder is not healing and it could become a permanent injury he has to deal with for the remainder of his wrestling career.

"I'm going to find out from Dr. Andrews if that's going to be a permanent thing, and I'll have to deal with it, or if there's something more that we can do,â€￾ said Kennedy. ''I don't want to do that. I'd rather be 100 percent, but you got to do what you got to do in this business because the bottom line is this business is going to keep rolling with or without me. I'd rather be a part of it and contribute. I think I have a lot to contribute because there are a lot of things that I have yet to accomplish that nobody really has seen out of me. I just want to get back in there and get after it -- win some championships, main event at WrestleMania. I say it year after year after year. If it takes me 10 years to do it, I'm going to do it."

Can anybody tell me how Kennedy injured himself?

He injured his shoulder (this time) in a match against Shelton Benjamin on a house show last August.

Hopefully it goes away. If it doesn't though, I'd like him to come back, but he'd have to be really pushed to get over, because he's not gonna get over iwth 5 star matches...

I just can't see him getting the big pushes if, as an unproven guy, he's carrying a permanent injury... Especially given his track record.

I say fully recover or get that ass to acting school and milk the action movie scene while (some) peeps still remember who he is.




Would be a shame tho' to have to consign him to the long list of wrestlers that never realised their potential.

I don't like him much but it still sucks. Maybe put him in as an announcer if worse comes to worst.

You know an announcing spot wouldn't be that bad him and Cole or King would be pretty cool to watch. But just in case you guys didn't know he used to announce basketball games, not sure if it was something on the side while he was in the indie scene or something before wrestling to make some money but I have relatives that claim they saw him a couple of times at games.

I think he'd be best served as a commentator as well. I never cared for him in the ring and it seems his skills deteriorated after each injury since the first so a commentator role would be good for the guy. He does have mic skills.

I've always liked Ken. Not sure why everyone hates him all of a sudden. I sincerely hope this is not true, so he can get back in the ring, and receive the push he's been owed for quite a while now.

Note: He MUST be heel. Otherwise screw him.

He'll never be pushed properly if he comes back. Retire or find a new role in wrestling, manager or announcer.
