stuff that was left out of his last intervew (the whole legitimate prescritiption explanation)

That being said, Kennedy agrees that stringent drug testing is a good thing.

"Change is always good in any business. This company has changed a lot since I got here. Things are a lot different in the locker room. The atmosphere is a lot different. It's much different than it was 20 years ago."

Kennedy claims the drug problem is not as prevalent as it was years ago in the wrestling business.

"I know a lot of people don't want to hear this and it's not the most popular answer with everybody, but a lot of the guys who have passed away come from that era when this business was a rock-star atmosphere. These guys lived like rock stars and they partied like rock stars. They did all the drugs. I'm not condoning drug use - anything in moderation is OK - but these guys went to the absolute extremes. It's no wonder when you mix steroids with recreational drugs and alcohol ... the combination of those three is a deadly cocktail. They're experiencing heart problems and all kinds of other stuff. A lot of those guys are flat broke because of it."

Kennedy, an avid Packers fan who grew up in a small fishing village in Wisconsin called Two Rivers, about 30 miles south of Green Bay, says he plans to take full advantage of his opportunity in WWE. The company loves his blue-collar work ethic, drive and passion for the business, and McMahon views him as a potential Wrestlemania headliner.

"I worked so hard to get here," says Kennedy, noted for his unique gimmick of announcing his own ring introductions. "It wasn't like I was an overnight success. I worked about 6 1/2 years on the independents and spent about six months down in Louisville for OVW

So, Ken is not condoning illegal drug use.....but saying its okay in moderation?

[Just "Dan" is Fine, Thank You]

There's nothing wrong with condoning moderate drug use. Phizer and Tylenol would agree.

[Aaron E. Dangerously]

Why does Kennedy always talk like he's been in the business for two decades?

YOU DON'T KNOW SHIT!

I mean, more than most fans, but he wasn't there back then. Who the f*** is he to talk?

[Lionheart]

Apparently, Kennedy doesn't have to stretch himself very far to pull off his loudmouth tool character.

[Just "Dan" is Fine, Thank You]

Anyone here read Scarlet Letter?

[The Thread Barbi]

Kennedy knew what the 'Es lockerroom was like 20 ys ago? Only Taker and Shawn can really say that. Unless, unless.....HE IS VINCE MCMAHON'S BIOLOGICAL, ILLEGITIMATE SON!

[Lancers]

Why does the WWE allow this guy to do interviews? I haven't seen this much foot-in-mouth action since I saw Candice Michelle's pre-WWE work.

[RedSmile]

I thought it was common knowledge how dirty pro wrestling was 20 years ago??

Or maybe he had talks with people who have been in the business for 20+ years? Like maybe the people who trained him, or maybe fellow wrestlers, or maybe even Vince himself?

[JMA]

Every time Kennedy wants to talk to the media, Taker needs to tape his wrists in front of him. That'll shut him up.

[Kevin Hamilton]

Just shut up Ken. I like ya alot, but you talking to the media is like the Riddler announcing the Legion of Doom's plans to the Superfriends nearly every episode. All you end up doing is looking foolish and pissing Luthor, Brainiac and Grodd off.

[Lancers]

Slim, did you just inadvertently compare Stephanie McMahon to Grodd?

God, that Riddler is always f***ing things up.

Kennedy: "I give clues!"





















"Cluuuuuuuues."

How about Ken just shut up and wrestle

[#Classic Hi-Definition X]

Kennedy, please, take this nice tall glass of STFU. It's on me.

[EvilShadow76]

Kennedy is one of these guys who give wrestling & it's fans the bad rep they get. He truly does seem to come off as such an ignorant fool.

[Just "Dan" is Fine, Thank You]

There's a big problem around here where people decide Kennedy is wrong, and then read what he says.

That's like telling Lashley to stop wrestling and talk.

Actually, today's wrestlers work with guys from the past, as well as Vince Mcmahon, so they should know a thing or two about the difference in era's. It's common knowledge.

Or they read what he says and decide that he's wrong. The guy is better off keeping his mouth shut.

Last time he swore up and down he didn't take steroids while in WWE, then it comes out he did and now he's scrambling for excuses.
