If he is healthy then why was he released a few days after his big return?

Since when does taking an RKO hurt your WRIST? ...perhaps when you mess up and land on it? Well, on his website, it says that he is optimistic about his future. So theres a possiblity that he asked for his release. ... no.

He says he is 100% healthy . He also said he's never taken steriods... Why would he lie about his health? If he did ask for his release, then he would say he wasnt fit. He wouldn't say "I'm 100% Healthy"

I would usually tell people like JSYN to quit while they're behind... but this is just too much fun.

Well to be fair as I recall Kennedy claimed he had used steriods but was at the time 100% clean and not taking steriods. And then weeks later it came out that he and a bunch of WWE guys were getting suspended for failing recent wellness policies.

Well considering the fact that he was holding his wrist after the match and wouldn't let the referee raise his arm...pretty obvious there. Not to mention the dirt sheets ARE correct much of the time, too. Who says he wasn't selling the injury? Because the RKO shouldn't affect your wrist. If he wanted to sell something, he could have gone for his neck or head.

NEWSFLASH: Kennedy hadn't been on TV in months. If you watched before this, what's different now? Nothing. If anyone is given a chance like people thought Kennedy was going to get, it'll be MVP... and Jesus, I'd much rather watch that happen. What's different about it is, we can no longer hope he'll come back, stay healthy and get a push... Yeah, that was the best part of WWE, waiting for Kennedy to return. I liked him too, but I guess he's just not cut out for wrestling... at least on WWE's schedule. Perhaps he'll show up in TNA and be able to stay healthy there.

not putting his real name is odd. They always say the real name when the get released or pass away but he might have changed his last name to Kennedy so maybe that's why they fired him probably because they couldn't get the rights to his name idk

He couldn't stay healthy, he was boring, his mic skills were so overrated. Good riddance

The real travesty is how much attention Kennedy's release gets while the much more talented Elijah Burke's release was largely ignored.

This is still incredibly odd to me, regardless of the injury situation.
Kennedy, despite his multiple injuries, was still being given star treatment. He was getting return promos, got a huge spot on Raw this past Monday, and then he just gets dropped.
His injury couldn't have bee anything worse than a broken hand, which a lot of guys can still work with. It wasn't a serious injury.
I have a hard time believing that after keeping him through all the other serious injuries, and the possibility that he wouldn't even be able to return at all, they release him for a somewhat minor injury in comparison.
I have a feeling there are other factors involved here.
But honestly, if not, I don't agree with it at all. Like I said, if Kennedy could work with a hand injury, I don't see an issue.

I'm glad Randy Orton got him fired. Not that I like ever seeing anybody lose their job, but wrestling is NOT for Kennedy. It's not his thing. He's not good in the ring, his gimmick with the microphone is the extent of his mic skills, and he's probably the most injury prone person since Kevin Nash. And I'll forever hate him for the 5 straight months of those God damn commercials for Behind Enemy Lines: Columbia. Randy Orton is the man, if you up, he'll get you fired. Manu: 0 Kennedy: 0 Randy Orton: 2

One of the saddest stories in WWE history. He was legitimately on his way to a world championship but couldn't stay healthy for more than a day. So sad, yet so true. Where'd all the Kennedy fans go? Everyone seems happy he's gone now but he used to be a HUGE hit with a lot of fans.. I'm a huge Kennedy fan. Though, why bitch and complain when I'm still going to watch WWE like I always do. And since Kennedy's been gone for almost two years, there won't be much to miss. I'm so sad because he had the look, the charisma, the wrestling potential to be a huge star. I'm glad I saw him twice live in two cities that I call home: Oakland and LA. He beat Burchill in Oakland and made is long awaited return in LA. I am sad, though incredibly happy that I was there for his return, even if it was only for one night.

So theres a possiblity that he asked for his release. Uhhh... why wouldn't he say that? It seems like a normal, typical, average thing for him to say with getting released. I mean, I sure wouldn't expect him to be heartbroken and say he's spiraled into depression.
