Mr. Kennedy was a big name in WWE back in the mid-2000s. He feuded with top WWE Superstars on the SmackDown brand, most notably The Undertaker and Batista. Kennedy went on to win the Money In The Bank briefcase at WrestleMania 23 but lost it to Edge soon after on an episode of RAW.

Kennedy didn't do much of note for the remainder of his WWE career. He was released by WWE in 2009. Kennedy later stated that Randy Orton had a lot to do with WWE releasing him.
Having won the US title on one occasion during his WWE stint, Mr. Kennedy did much more upon his release. After a short run on the independent scene, Kennedy made his way to Impact Wrestling.
For the next six years, Kennedy remained a mainstay in Impact Wrestling and was featured in some of the biggest storylines during his run. Going by the moniker of Mr. Anderson, he won the Impact World title on two separate occasions. He was fired in 2016 after failing a drug test.

Abhilash Mendhe is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda with nearly five years of experience. He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
